Downloading a System File
This section contains the procedures for downloading a system file into
the switch’s file system from a management workstation or TFTP server.
You can download any of the following files:
❑ Boot configuration file
❑ Public encryption key
❑ CA certificate
Note
CA certificates and key files are supported only on the version of
AT-S62 management software that features SSL, PKI, and SSH
security.
This section contains the following two procedures:
❑ Downloading a System File from a Local Management Session on
❑ Downloading a System File from a Telnet Management Session on
You can use either Xmodem or TFTP when downloading files from a

from a Telnet management session.
Caution

file onto a switch. Doing so will store the image file in the switch’s file
system. To download an AT-S62 image file, see Downloading the
AT-S62 Image File onto a Switch on page 161 or Downloading an
AT-S62 Image File Switch to Switch on page 167.

terminal connected to the RS232 Terminal Port on the switch.
