Total: 5 files.

Note whether there is one file with the file type “Operation Code” or two (as in the example above). If there are two “Operation Code” files, you must first delete the oldest image file using the following command sequence (inserting the file name of the oldest operation code file in place of the example below):

(FortiSwitch-100_238) #delete lb4w-r-1.04.0221.img Are you sure you want to delete? (y/n) y

Image File "lb4w-r-1.04.0221.img" Deleted!

(FortiSwitch-100_238) #dir

date	file name	file type startup size (byte)

2.Configure an IP address on "interface vlan 1" (if not already configured):

The FortiSwitch-100 must have an IP address in order to communicate with the TFTP server. If one has already been successfully configured on the switch, skip to step 3.

You can give the switch a static IP address manually, or configure a DHCP server to provide an IP address dynamically.

To configure a dynamic IP address using DHCP:

Type the commands shown below to configure the FortiSwitch to acquire an IP address from your DHCP server:

(FortiSwitch-100_238) #config

(FortiSwitch-100_238) (Config)#interface vlan 1 (FortiSwitch-100_238) (if-vlan 1)#ip address protocol dhcp Changing protocol mode will reset ip configuration.

Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n)y (FortiSwitch-100_238) (if-vlan 1)#exit

(FortiSwitch-100_238) (Config)#exit

To manually configure a static IP address:

If you are not using DHCP to automatically assign an IP address to the FortiSwitch, follow the steps below to configure a static IP address on the switch, substituting the appropriate IP address for the example shown. If you do not know what IP address to assign to the switch, contact your IT department.

(FortiSwitch-100_238) #config

(FortiSwitch-100_238) (Config)#interface vlan 1 (FortiSwitch-100_238) (if-vlan 1)#ip address protocol none Changing protocol mode will reset ip configuration.

Are you sure you want to continue? (y/n)y

(FortiSwitch-100_238) (if-vlan 1)#ip address 172.18.21.210 255.255.252.0
