File System Overview

The AT-S62 management software has a file system of 2 megabytes for
storing system files. You can view the file system, as well as copy,
rename, and delete files. The following file types are supported by the
AT-S62 file system:

ˆ

Boot configuration files

ˆ

Encryption keys

ˆ

CA and self-signed certificates

ˆ

Certificate enrollment requests

ˆ

Event logs

For an explanation of a boot configuration file, refer to “Working with Boot
Configuration Files” on page 176.

Public encryption keys, public certificates, and certificate enrollment
request files are related to the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates
feature described in Chapter 31, “Encryption Keys” on page 687, and
Chapter 32, “PKI Certificates and SSL” on page 705. Refer to those
chapters for background information on those files.

Note

The certificate file, certificate enrollment request file, and key file are
only supported on the version of AT-S62 management software that
features SSL and PKI security.

This chapter does not explain how to download or upload a file from the
AT-S62 file system to a management workstation or an TFTP server. For
those instructions, refer to Chapter 11, “File Downloads and Uploads” on
page 187.

Note

The file system may contain one or more ENC.UKF files. These are
encryption key pairs. These files cannot be deleted or copied in the
file system. For instructions on deleting an encryption key pair, refer
to “Deleting an Encryption Key” on page 699.

The file system should not be used to store the switch’s AT-S62
image file.
