Chapter 35: File Management Commands
These commands are used to manage software and configuration files on the
switch.
Managing Firmware
Firmware can be uploaded and downloaded to or from a TFTP server. By saving
runtime code to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded to the
switch to restore operation. The switch can also be set to use new firmware without
overwriting the previous version.
When downloading runtime code, the destination file name can be specified to
replace the current image, or the file can be first downloaded using a different name
from the current runtime code file, and then the new file set as the startup file.
Saving or Restoring Configuration Settings
Configuration settings can be uploaded and downloaded to and from a TFTP server.
The configuration file can be later downloaded to restore switch settings.
The configuration file can be downloaded under a new file name and then set as the
startup file, or the current startup configuration file can be specified as the
destination file to directly replace it. Note that the file “Factory_Default_Config.cfg”
can be copied to the TFTP server, but cannot be used as the destination on the
switch.
