Obtaining a system image from an FTP/TFTP server

If the required system image is saved on an FTP or TFTP server, configure the management Ethernet port
and obtain the system image as described in the following sections.
The version of the system image must match that of the boot image. Before obtaining a system image,
check the version of the boot image by using the display version command and the version of the system
image by reading the release notes.

Configuring the management Ethernet port

To use FTP, TFTP, SSH, and Telnet services in emergency shell mode, you must configure an IP address for
the management Ethernet port and activate the port at first. If the servers are on a different network, you
must also specify a gateway for the management Ethernet port.

Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter management
Ethernet port view.
3. Assign an IPv4 address
to the port.
4. Specify an IPv4 gateway
for the port.
5. Activate the port.
6. Return to system view.
To configure the management Ethernet port on an IPv6 network:

2. Enter management
Ethernet port view.
