Configuration File Download Using TFTP
To download a configuration file from a TFTP server to the switch module, proceed as follows:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Download Method field.
2. Use the SPACE bar to select DOWNLOAD CONFIG.
NOTE: When DOWNLOAD CONFIG is selected, the Reboot After Download field is
automatically set to YES (and cannot be changed), so that the switch module
automatically reboots after a successful download.
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the TFTP Gateway IP Addr field.
4. Set the IP address of the TFTP gateway (this defaults to the same IP address as that set in the
TFTP Gateway IP Addr field on the General Configuration screen).
5. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Download Server IP field.
6. Enter the IP address of the TFTP server using the DDN format.
For example: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
7. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Download File Name field.
8. Enter the complete pathway and file name of the image stored on the download server.
9. Use the arrow keys to highlight EXECUTE at the bottom of the screen and press ENTER. The
message "DOWNLOADING CONFIGURATION. REBOOT WILL OCCUR WHEN
DOWNLOAD COMPLETES." displays in the event message line at the top of the screen and
the configuration file is downloaded to the switch module from the TFTP server.
