■Run an FTP client application on the PC to connect to the FTP server.
The following takes the command line window tool provided by Windows as an
example:
# Enter the command line window and browse to the directory where the file
switch.bin is located. In this example it is in the root directory of C:.
C:\>
# Access the Ethernet switch through FTP. Input the username switch and
password hello to log in and enter FTP view.
C:\> ftp 1.1.1.1
ftp>
# Switch data transfer mode to binary.
[ftp] binary
n3Com recommends that you set the transfer mode to binary before performing
data transfer operation, so as to ensure that the device can receive data normally.
ftp> put switch.bin
# Download file config.cfg.
ftp> get config.cfg
■Upgrade the application of the switch.
# Use the boot boot-loader command to specify the uploaded application to be
the startup file for next startup and restart the switch to complete the switch
application upgrade.
<3Com> boot boot-loader switch.bin
<3Com> reboot
