Procedure

To upload or download a configuration:

1. Position the cursor in the Image File Name field. Type the name of the file to

be downloaded, or the name to be used for the file to be uploaded.

The file name may be a regular path name expression of directory names
separated by a forward slash (/) ending with the file name. The total path
name length can be up to 128 characters.

DOS machine: If the TFTP server is hosted by a DOS machine, then
directory and file names must consist of eight or less characters with an
optional suffix of up to three characters. The system will automatically upload
the configuration file and create directories and file names as needed.

UNIX machine: If your server is hosted by a UNIX machine, the configuration
file you name must already exist. It will not be created on the UNIX system by
the TFTP server. It is critical that you work with your system administrator to
plan the naming conventions for directories, filenames, and permissions so
that anyone using the system has read and write permissions.
