fetch [account_name] [ip_address] [file_source] [file_destination]

Retrieves image file given by [file_source] and stores it on the switch with the file name given by [file_destination]. The image file is retrieved from the FTP server with the IP address given by [ip_address] and an account name given by [account_name]. If an account name needs a password to access the FTP server, the system will prompt you for it.

install

Downloads firmware from a remote host to the switch, installs the firmware, then resets the switch (without a power-on self test) to activate the firmware. This reset is disruptive. The command prompts you for the following:

„IP address of the remote host

„An account name and password on the remote host

„Pathname for the firmware image file

list

Displays the list of image files that reside on the switch.

unpack [file]

Installs the firmware file given by [file]. After unpacking the file, a message appears confirming successful unpacking. The switch must be reset for the new firmware to take effect. Enter the Hotreset command to attempt a non-disruptive activation.
