You can upload/download firmware to or from a TFTP server. By saving

to the switch to restore operation. You can also set the switch to use new
firmware without overwriting the previous version.
Command Attributes
• TFTP Server IP Address – The IP address of a TFTP server.
• Destination File Name – The destination file name should not
contain slashes (\ or /), the leading letter of the file name should not
be a period (.), and the length of file name should be 1 to 31 characters.

different name from the current runtime code file, and then set the new
file as the startup file.
