For an Xmodem upload, note the following:

❑ Xmodem can upload a file only from the switch on which you

started the local management session. You cannot use Xmodem
to upload a file from a switch accessed through enhanced
stacking.

For a TFTP upload, note the following:

❑ There must be a node on your network that contains the TFTP

server software.

❑ You should start the TFTP server software before you begin the

download procedure.

❑ The switch from which you are uploading the file must have an IP

address and subnet mask, such as a master switch of an enhanced
stack. You cannot use TFTP on a slave switch, since that type of
switch typically does not have an IP address. Rather, you would
need to perform the upload from a local management session of
the switch using Xmodem.

Examples

The following command uses Xmodem to upload a switch’s
configuration file called “sw22 boot.cfg” from a local management
session:

upload method=xmodem file=”sw22 boot.cfg”

After entering the command, use your terminal emulator program to
indicate where you want to store the file on your computer and its
filename.

The following command uses TFTP to upload the switch’s configuration
file “switch4.cfg.” It names the file “switch12a.cfg” on the TFTP server:

upload method=tftp destfile=switch12a.cfg
server=149.36.11.21 file=switch4.cfg
