Downloading Software
Observe the following when downloading the OS software to the
Switch 2000:
–
filename .swi
and
filename .fdd
must be in the same direc-
tory.
–
filename
must be the same for both files (that is, the files must
be the
.swi
and
.fdd
file pair from the disk or from the self-
extracting
j3100a.exe
file.
For the above reasons, avoid placing the
filename .swi and
filename .fdd
in separate directories, and avoid renaming them.
N o t e
The latest version of the Switch 2000 OS supports all Switch 2000 Modules
currently available. If you are installing more than one type of Switch 2000
module and/or if it is necessary to download a new version of the Switch 2000
OS, use the latest version available. To support the 10Base-FL Module, use OS
version A.02.01 or later. The Switch 2000 Ethernet and 100VG Modules operate
with
any version of Switch 2000 OS software. For more on software compat-
ibility, see the
readme.txt
file included on the disk and in the compressed,
self-extracting
j3100a.exe
file from the electronic sources mentioned
above.
How To Download the OS
Use this procedure if you need to download a new OS version to your Switch
2000. The procedure describes how to use a personal computer (PC) to
download the OS. (If you are using a UNIX workstation, refer to the Note on.)
The files used in this procedure are described under “Software Sources and
Content” on page 3.
1. Do one of the following:
• If the source of your OS files is the disk shipped with the
10Base-FL Module, copy the files from the disk into the DOS directory
you will use for downloading to the switch. Then go to on the next
page.
• If the source of your OS files is the self-extracting
j3100a.exe
file
from an electronic source (see “Software Sources and Content” on
page 3):
i. Copy the
j3100a.exe
file into the DOS directory you will use
for downloading to the switch.
ii. Execute the file to decompress and extract its contents.
