File Management

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 an FTP/SFTP/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 FTP/SFTP/TFTP server, but
cannot be used as the destination on the switch.
