3Enter the FTP mode by using the ftp command followed by the IP address or the name of the host you
are connecting to. (If you enter a host name, please refer to “Using Zmodem” on page2-24.)
->ftp 10.255.11.101
220 Connecting to [10.255.11.101]...connected.
Cosmo Windows FTP server ready
Name : Myhost1
Note. You can only use a host name instead of an IP address if the DNS resolver has been configured and
enabled. If not, you must specify an IP address.
4Enter a valid user name and password for the host you specified with the ftp command. A screen
similar to the following displays:
Name (d) : Jsmith
331 Password required for Jsmith
Password: *****
230 User Jsmith logged in.
5Use the FTP “put” command to transfer the file from your switch to the host as shown here.
ftp> put rrtest.txt
The following will display.
200 Port set okay
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection
Transferred 20 octets in 1 seconds.
226 Transfer complete
ftp>
6To exit the switch’s FTP client mode, use the “quit” FTP command. Your current directory on the
switch is /flash/working, which is the location from which you initiated the FTP client session. Use the
pwd CLI command to verify your current directory.
ftp> quit
221 Bye
-> pwd
/flash/working
Creating a File Directory Using Secure Shell FTP
The following example describes the steps necessary to create a directory on a remote OmniSwitch and to
transfer a file into the new directory using Secure Shell FTP.
1Log on to the switch and issue the sftp CLI command with the IP address for the device you are
connecting to. The following command establishes a Secure Shell FTP interface from the local
OmniSwitch to another OmniSwitch at IP address 10.222.30.125.
-> sftp 10.222.30.125
