10.9.2 Downloading via TFTP
To perform a TFTP download, you must first configure the switch. This consists of programming the switch with an IP address, if this has not already been done, and entering the IP address of the TFTP server and the name of the upgrade file.
To program the switch IP address, select Management Setup Menu from the Main Menu screen, then select Network Configuration.
To download switch software via TFTP, proceed as follows:
1.Select Download Server IP Address from the TFTP Download Menu.
2.Enter the TFTP server IP address and press ENTER.
3.Select Download Filename and enter the file name to be downloaded from the TFTP server.
NOTE: For a TFTP download, the path to the file must be included in its name. For example, if the upgrade file name is filename.bin and it resides in the directory /usr/tftp on the TFTP server, then you must enter the TFTP file name as: “/usr/tftp/filename.fls”.
4.If necessary, configure the address of an IP gateway to reach the server from the switch using the Gateway IP field in the Network Configuration/IP Configuration menu.
