3com switches 4200G allow you to input a file path and file name in one of the following ways:
In universal resource locator (URL) format and starting with "unit1>flash:/". or "flash:/" This method
is used to specify a file in the current Flash memory. For example, the URL of a file named text.txt
in the root directory of the switch is unit1>flash:/text.txt or flash:/text.txt.
