A Wireless Switch (WX) contains nonvolatile storage. MSS allows you to
manage the files in nonvolatile storage. In addition, you can copy files
between the WX switch and a TFTP server on the network.

About System Files

Generally, a WX switch’s nonvolatile storage contains the following types
of files:

„

System image files — The operating system software for the WX
switch and its attached MAPs

„

Configuration files — CLI commands that configure the WX switch
and its attached MAPs

„

System log files — Files containing log entries generated by MSS.

When you power on or reset the WX switch or reboot the software, the
switch loads a designated system image, then loads configuration
information from a designated configuration file.

A WX switch can also contain temporary files with trace information used
for troubleshooting. Temporary files are not stored in nonvolatile memory,
but are listed when you display a directory of the files on the switch.
