FLASH Administration

The next 5 objects are related to firmware or configuration file management. The underlying
method in the transfer of the firmware or configuration file is based on either FTP or remote shell.
If a password is provided, then FTP is used. If NO password is provided, then remote shell is used.
Use one of the two following methods to manage the firmware or switch configuration file in the
switch FLASH:
1. Set swFlashDLHost.0, swFlashDLUser.0 and swFlashDLFile.0 to appropriate host IP address
in user dot notation (for example, 192.168.1.7), user name (for example, administrator), and
file name of the firmware or configuration file (for example, /home/fcswh/v2.2) respectively.
Or,
1. Set swFlashDLPassword.0 to an appropriate value (for example, secret) if FTP is the desired
method of transfer.
2. Set swFlashDLAdmStatus.0 to 2 (swFwUpgrade), 3 (swCfUpload), or 4 (swCfDownload)
accordingly.
4-16
By default, the return value is the WWN of the switch.
