Managing Firmware

You can upload/download firmware to or from a TFTP server. By
saving runtime code to a file on a TFTP server, that file can later be
downloaded to the switch to restore operation. You can also set
the switch to use new firmware without overwriting the previous
version.
Command Attributes
• TFTP Server IP Address – The IP address of a TFTP server.
• Destination File Name — File names are case-sensitive. The
file name should not contain slashes (\ or /), the leading letter
of the file name should not be a period (.), and the maximum
length for file names on the TFTP server is 127 characters or 31
characters for files on the switch. (Valid characters: A-Z, a-z,
0-9, ".", "-", "_")
Note: The maximum number of runtime code files is 2.

Downloading System Software from a Server

When downloading runtime code, you can specify the Destination
File Name to replace the current image, or first download the file
using a different name from the current runtime code file, and then
set the new file as the startup file.
