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

code file, you need to select the new file name from the drop-down box
for the operation code used at startup, and then click Apply Changes.
