To initiate the File Transfer Program, press the function key <F5>.

The file transfer facility will display a one page tutorial. The administration console PC is considered the LOCAL PC. The CyberSWITCH is considered the HOST. To copy files, you issue a command similar to a standard MSDOS copy command and supply the proper prefix to the file paths. For example:

COPY LC:NETWORK.NEI HC:\CONFIG\NETWORK.NEI

where:

L=Local

H=Host

This command will copy the NETWORK.NEI file from the current directory on the administration consoles PC’s C: drive to the CyberSWITCH’s C:\CONFIG directory. This downloads files from the administration console PC to the CyberSWITCH. To retrieve files such as system logs from the CyberSWITCH, simply reverse the copy procedure.

If you find you need to create subdirectories, rename files, type documents, or other similar file manipulations, you can do so without leaving Carbon Copy. The file transfer facility offers DOS command equivalents to RENAME, TYPE, MKDIR, DIR, and several other popular file manipulation commands. Simply type HELP at the prompt to get more information.

After you finish copying files and want to log-off, select Terminate Link from the command menu. Press: <F1>.

Then select Return to Application from the command menu. Press <F10>. This will return you to the DOS prompt.

RUNNING WITHOUT CARBON COPY

If you plan to use one or more dedicated links of 1Mbps or more, you may wish to increase your system’s performance by running without Carbon Copy.

For each Platform, the chart below compares the maximum throughput supported with remote management (running Carbon Copy) compared to the maximum throughput supported with running only a local console (running without Carbon Copy). As shown, the higher the maximum throughput supported, the greater performance improvement there is when Carbon Copy is not running.
