To perform a TFTP download from a UNIX system, store the uncompressed
filename.swi and filename.fdd in the UNIX TFTP directory, then
perform the TFTP download as described in step 2, above. If you do not have
access to a DOS system in order to execute the j3100a.exe file, use the
world wide web or BBS services described on the card at the front of this
manual to download uncompressed versions of filename.swi and
filename.fdd. If your TFTP server is a UNIX system, ensure that the case
(upper or lower) that you specify for the filename in the Switch 2000 Download
OS screen is the same case as the OS filenames in the TFTP server.
Switch-to-Switch Download
If you have two or more Switch 2000s networked together, you can download
the OS software from one switch to another by using the Download OS feature
in the Switch 2000 console interface. To do so:
1.
Go to the Download OS screen in the switch to receive the download
2.
Enter the IP or IPX address of the remote switch containing the OS you
want to download
3.
Enter "OS" for the Remote File Name.
4.
Execute the download.
For more information on the Download OS feature, refer to appendix A,
"Downloading an Operating System" in the Console User's Guide you received
with your Switch 2000.
