When to Use
To perform the following:
•
Download a new firmware image file from a TFTP server to the module,
•
Download a configuration file from a TFTP server to the module, or
•
Upload the configuration file from the module to a TFTP server.
Before downloading an image to the device, copy the image to the network TFTP server. A new
firmware image file must be a file from Enterasys Networks; otherwise the agent will not accept it.
The success of the download operation depends on the accessibility of the TFTP server and the
quality of the network connection. After downloading the new image, the agent will automatically
restart itself.
NOTE: For information on how to set up a workstation as a TFTP server, refer to the
specific workstation documentation.
The download and upload configuration capability enables user configured settings to be copied
from one module to another via the TFTP server, according to the rules described in this section.
The configuration file can also be stored on the TFTP server to prevent losing the configuration
values while performing maintenance on the module. After the maintenance is completed, the
configuration values can be downloaded to the same module.
NOTE: Configuration files cannot be downloaded or uploaded directly from one module
to another.
