FTP Configuration: A Switch Operating as an FTP Client

Network requirements
A switch operates as an FTP client and a remote PC as an FTP server. The switch application named
switch.bin is stored on the PC. Download it to the switch through FTP and use the boot boot-loader
command to specify switch.bin as the application for next startup. Reboot the switch to upgrade the
switch application, and then upload the switch configuration file named config.cfg to directory switch
of the PC to back up the configuration file.
Create a user account on the FTP server with the username switch and password hello, and grant
the user switch read and write permissions for the directory switch on the PC.
Configure the IP address 1.1.1.1 for a VLAN interface on the switch, and 2.2.2.2 for the PC. Ensure
a route exists between the switch and the PC.
