1.2 File System Configuration
1.2.1 Introduction to File System
To facilitate management on storage devices such as the Flash of a switch, Ethernet
switches provide the file system module. The file system allows users to access and
manage files and directories, such as the operations of
creating/deleting/modifying/renaming a file or a directory and displaying the contents of
a file.
By default, a switch prompts for confirmation before executing the commands which
have potential risks (for example, deleting and overwriting files).
According to the operation objects, the operations on the file system fall into the
following categories:
z
Directory operation
z
File operation
z
Storage device operation
