Transfer a New Management Configuration File to the Switch
If the file transfer succeeds, the new configuration file has been saved in the
management processor, and will be loaded next time the Switch is reset.
Windows:
Perform the following sequence of events:
d:\temp>
tftp <IP address> put config<R>
(Where: <IP address> = the actual
TFTP Session closed
address of the switch being
accessed)
d:\temp>
tftp <IP address> get reset <R>
(reset the switch)
TFTP Session closed
d:\temp>
Unix
Perform the following sequence of events:
#
tftp <R>
tftp>
connect <IP address> <R>
(Where: <IP address> = the actual address
of the switch being accessed)
tftp>
text <R>
(Enter the text mode)
text mode
tftp>
put config.new config <R>
(transfer the config file)
transferred xxx bytes in x.x seconds
tftp>
put reset <R>
(reset the switch)
tftp>
quit <R>
(exit tftp)
#
NOTE:
If any of these management configuration parameters are changed using SNMP
after the config file has been written by TFTP, but before the Switch is reset, the
SNMP process will save its now-current configuration into the config file, over-
writing and deleting the config file sent using TFTP. To avoid this problem, a step is
provided in the instructions to reset the Switch immediately after the TFTP transfer.
