Procedure

To upload or download a configuration:

1.Position the cursor in the Image File Name field. Type the name of the file to be downloaded, or the name to be used for the file to be uploaded.

The filename may be a regular path name expression of directory names separated by a forward slash (/) ending with the filename. The total path name length can be up to 128 characters.

DOS machine: If the TFTP server is hosted by a DOS machine, then directory and filenames must consist of eight or less characters with an optional suffix of up to three characters. The system will automatically upload the configuration file and create directories and filenames, as needed.

UNIX machine: If your server is hosted by a UNIX machine, the configuration file you name must already exist. It will not be created on the UNIX system by the TFTP server. It is critical that you work with your system administrator to plan the naming conventions for directories, filenames, and permissions so that anyone using the system has read and write permissions.

MCP FFS: When uploading configuration files to the MCP FFS, the directory and filename must be entered, otherwise the download will fail.
