the startup file used when the switch starts the next time, and restart the switch. Thus
the switch application is upgraded.

boot boot-loader switch.bin

reboot

Note:

For information about the boot boot-loader command and how to specify the startup
file for a switch, refer to the “System Maintenance and Debugging” module of this
manual.

1.1.4 FTP Configuration: A Switch Operating as an FTP Client

I. Basic configurations on an FTP client

The function for a switch to operate as an FTP client is implemented by an application
module built in the switch. Thus a switch can operate as an FTP client without any
configuration. You can perform FTP-related operations (such as creating/removing a
directory) by executing FTP client commands on a switch operating as an FTP client
connecting with the remote FTP server. Table 1-7 lists the operations that can be
performed on an FTP client.
