Managing System Files
– 110 –
◆
Note that the switch itself does not distinguish between upper and
lower-case file names, and only checks to see if the file stored on the
server is more recent than the current runtime image.
◆
If two operation code image files are already stored on the switch’s file
system, then the non-startup image is deleted before the upgrade
image is transferred.
◆
The automatic upgrade process will take place in the background
without impeding normal operations (data switching, etc.) of the
switch.
◆
During the automatic search and transfer process, the administrator
cannot transfer or update another operation code image, configuration
file, public key, or HTTPS certificate (i.e., no other concurrent file
management operations are possible).
◆ The upgrade operation code image is set as the startup image after it
has been successfully written to the file system.
◆ The switch will send an SNMP trap and make a log entry upon all
upgrade successes and failures.
◆ The switch will immediately restart after the upgrade file is successfully
written to the file system and set as the startup image.
P
ARAMETERS
The following parameters are displayed:
◆
Automatic Opcode Upgrade – Enables the switch to search for an
upgraded operation code file during the switch bootup process.
(Default: Disabled)
◆
Automatic Upgrade Location URL – Defines where the switch should
search for the operation code upgrade file. The last character of this
URL must be a forward slash (“/”). The es3510ma.bix filename must
not be included since it is automatically appended by the switch.
(Options: ftp, tftp)
The following syntax must be observed:
tftp:// host [ / filedir ] /
■
tftp:// – Defines TFTP protocol for the server connection.
■
host – Defines the IP address of the TFTP server. Valid IP addresses
consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. DNS host
names are not recognized.
■
filedir – Defines the directory, relative to the TFTP server root,
where the upgrade file can be found. Nested directory structures
are accepted. The directory name must be separated from the host,
and in nested directory structures, from the parent directory, with a
prepended forward slash “/”.
■
/ – The forward slash must be the last character of the URL.
