The delete
file-url command moves a file to the recycle bin and the file still occupies storage space. To
permanently delete the file from the recycle bin, execute the reset recycle-bin command in the original
directory of the file.
Downloading files to the switch
NOTE:
•
Download the files used for upgrade to the flash memory of the active MPU and the standby MPU. Skip
this section if the files are already located there.
•
The following example shows how to download a system software image (a .bin file) to the switch.
Download other files in the same way as needed.
You can download the .bin file through FTP or TFTP. The following illustrates how to download through
FTP when the switch serves as the FTP client and a PC serves as the FTP server. Make sure the FTP client
and server can reach other.
1.
Run the FTP server program on the PC (assume its IP address is 10.10.110.1) and set the username,
password, and directory where the .bin file is saved.
CAUTION:
S10500 switches are not shipped with FTP server software. Prepare it by yourself.
2.
Download the .bin file (newest.bin for example) to the active MPU of the switch.
