The procedure of loading an application file is similar to that of loading a Boot ROM file. The difference lies in that the system displays the prompt of loading the application file rather than the Boot ROM file.

After loading the application file, the switch displays that you should configure the application attribute, that is, main, backup, or none. Type a specific attribute to complete loading the application file.
