7.Managing Firmware
You can upload/download firmware to or from a TFTP server. By saving runtime
code to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded to the switch to
restore operation. You can also set the switch to use new firmware without over-
writing the previous version.
Command Attributes
> TFTP Server IP Address – The IP address of a TFTP server.
> Destination File Name – Destination file names should not contain slashes (\
or /), and the leading letter of a file name should not be a period (.).
> The maximum number of runtime code files is 2.
Downloading System Software from a Server
When downloading runtime code, you can specify the Destination File Name to
replace the current image, or first download the file using a different name from
the current runtime code file, and then set the new file as the startup file.
Web – Click System/Firmware. Enter the IP address of the TFTP server, enter
the file name of the software to download, select a file on the switch to overwrite
or specify a new file name, then click “Transfer from Server.”
