2.Using Secure File Transfer Protocol (sftp), log on to the VTL server, change to the usr/vtl/packages/build/Windows/ directory, and download all listed installation files to a temporary directory on the client:

%sftp vtladmin@appliance_IP-address sftp> cd /software/Windows/

sftp> ls

data1.cab ikernel.ex_ layout.bin Setup.ini

data1.hdr ISInstall.exe setup.bmp setup.inx

data2.cab	ISInstall.ini Setup.exe
