The S9500 series applications can also be updated through the Ethernet port and using
FTP.
Following is the upgrading procedure, using the S9512 working as an FTP Client as an
example.

Step 1: Connect the Switch to the PC containing the desired file via the
management/upgrade Ethernet port. (In this case, you should know the IP address of
the PC. At the same time, connect the Switch to an external PC (that can be the same
one that contains the desired file) via the Console port.
Step 2: Run FTP Server on the PC connected to the management/upgrade Ethernet
port, specify the path of the upgrading file, and set the login username and password.
Step 3: Run the terminal emulation program on the PC connected to the Console port,
and boot the Switch to access the Boot menu.
Steps 4 ~ 8: See the corresponding steps in the upgrading procedure via TFTP for
reference.

If you want to download files using FTP, please set the flags to 0x0 when setting the
Ethernet interface parameters.
