TFTP Services
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) services allow the Switch's firmware to be upgraded by transferring a
new firmware file from a TFTP server to the Switch. A configuration file can also be loaded into the Switch from
a TFTP server, switch settings can be saved to the TFTP server, and a history log can be uploaded from the
Switch to the TFTP server.

Download Firmware

To update the Switch's firmware, open the TFTP Services folder in the Maintenance folder and then click the
Download Firmware link:
Unit ID − Select which switch of a switch stack you want to update the firmware on. This allows the selection
of a particular switch from a switch stack if you have installed the optional stacking module and have properly
interconnected the switches. All indicates all switches in a switch stack will download the same firmware.
Enter the IP address of the TFTP server in the Server IP Address field.
The TFTP server must be on the same IP subnet as the Switch.
Enter the path and the filename to the firmware file on the TFTP server. Note that in the above example, the
firmware file is in the root directory of the D drive of the TFTP server.
The TFTP server must be running TFTP server software to perform the file transfer. TFTP server software is a
part of many network management software packages – such as NetSight, or can be obtained as a separate
program.
Click Start to record the IP address of the TFTP server.
