Using TFTP Protocol to Download Over the Network

Use the TFTP Download menu to load software updates into the switch. The
download file should be an OmniStack 8008 file from Alcatel; otherwise the switch
will not accept it. The success of the download operation depends on the
accessibility of the TFTP server and the quality of the network connection. After
downloading the new software, the switch will automatically restart itself.
