Set [F]ile Type
If you selected the remote boot load mode, you can choose what
kind of files the switch will download while it is booting up. There
are three file type options:

Image
An image file is the management software for the stack.

Configuration
A configuration file is a file that contains all of the existing
configurations and settings for a stack. You can upload the
configuration file and modify the stack settings and then
download the configuration file back to the stack or onto
multiple stacks that you want to have the same
configurations. The stack(s) will then update their
configuration(s) based on the settings in the configuration
file.

Image and Configuration
This option allows you to download both the
management software and the configuration file.
