AT-S62 Command Line User’s Guide

❑filename - Uploads a file from the switch’s file system. This differs from the SWITCHCFG parameter in that the latter uploads just the active boot configuration file, while this parameter can upload any file in the switch’s file system.

❑APPBLOCK - Uploads the switch’s active AT-S62 image file.

Examples

The following command uses Xmodem to upload a configuration file called “sw22 boot.cfg” from the switch’s file system to the workstation where you are running the local management session:

upload method=xmodem srcfile="sw22 boot.cfg"

An Xmodem upload command does not include a destination filename. After entering the command, use your terminal emulator program to indicate where you want to store the file on your workstation and its filename.

The following command uses Xmodem to upload the switch’s active configuration file from the file system to your workstation. The active boot file is signified with the SWITCHCFG option rather than by its filename. This option is useful in situations where you do not know the name of the active boot configuration file:

upload method=xmodem srcfile=switchcfg

The following command uploads a SSL certificate enrollment request named “sw12_ssl_enroll.csr” from the switch’s file system to the workstation:

upload method=xmodem srcfile=sw12_ssl_enroll.csr

The following command uploads the switch’s active AT-S62 image file to the workstation:

upload method=xmodem srcfile=sw12_ssl_enroll.csr

Note

It is unlikely you will ever have cause to upload an active image file from a switch to your workstation. If you are considering the upload so as to update the image file on another switch, you can simplify the process by instead performing a switch to switch upload using UPLOAD METHOD=REMOTESWITCH on page 248.
