The XMODEM download method uses the XMODEM utility to download
a file onto the switch from a terminal or computer with a terminal
emulator program connected to the RS-232 Terminal Port on the
AT-8401 fabric management card. This type of download can only be
performed from a local management session and the file to download
must be stored on the computer connected to the AT-8401
management card.

The REMOTESWITCH parameter downloads a file from the master switch
to another switch in the enhanced stack. You can perform this type of
download from a local or remote management session.

The DESTFILE parameter specifies the name that the file is to be store as
on the switch. This parameter is only used with a TFTP download.

When specifying the new name of a downloaded file, you must be sure
to give it the correct three-letter extension, depending on the file type.
The extensions are shown in Table 1.

Before downloading files, note the following:

❑ To download a new version of the AT-S60 management software

image onto a switch, specify the DESTFILE filename as
“ATS60.IMG”. Do not give the image file any other name.

❑ When you download a new configuration file onto a switch, the

file is stored in the switch’s file system, but it is not automatically
activated on the switch. If you want the switch to use a newly
downloaded configuration file the next time you reboot the
switch, see SET CONFIG on page 126.
