Downloading a File
This procedure explains how to download a file from a TFTP server on
your network to the switch using the web browser interface. You can
download any of the following files:
❑ AT-S63 image file
❑ Boot configuration file
❑ Public key
❑ CA certificate
Note
The public key and CA certificate are supported only on the version
of AT-S63 management software that features SSL, PKI, and SSH
security.
Note the following before you begin this procedure:
❑ You must use TFTP to download a file from a web browser
management session.
❑ To use TFTP, there must be a node on your network that contains
the TFTP server software.
❑ The file that you are downloading must be stored on the TFTP
server node.
❑ You should start the TFTP server before you begin the download
procedure:
❑ The AT-S63 image file contains the bootloader for the switch. You
cannot load the image file and bootloader separately.
❑ Installing a new AT-S63 software image does not change the
current configuration of a switch (for instance, IP address, subnet
mask, and virtual LANs). If you want to return a switch to its default
configuration values, refer to ”Returning the AT-S63 Management
Software to the Factory Default Values” on page 50.
Caution
The switch stops forwarding Ethernet traffic after it has downloaded
an AT-S63 image file and begun to initialize the software. Some
network traffic may be lost.
