The CoreBuilder 3500 uses the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) or
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to transfer the files to the host, depending
on the setting for the
®
SuperStack II Switch 3900, Switch 9300, and the CoreBuilder 9400
use TFTP to transfer files.
Before you transfer files:
You must create the file to receive the snapshot images on an FTP or
TFTP server before you send the images to the file.
You supply the IP address of the host and specify the file according to
the requirements of your TFTP or FTP implementation.
Some TFTP implementations require that you store the file in the same
directory in which the TFTP daemon (server) is running on the remote
host.
Because TFTP provides no user authentication, give the file loose
permissions to make it publicly readable and writable. TFTP servers do
not grant requests for file access.
On the CoreBuilder 3500, if you use FTP for
you must enter a login name and password if you are sending a file to
an FTP server.

implementations allow you to specify only the file name and the system
uses the default TFTP directory.)
