6.7.2 Upgrade of Boot ROM software by TFTP

The remote loading by using TFTP is similar to the remote loading by using FTP. The only
difference is that it is TFTP that you use when loading Boot ROM software to the switch. In
this case, the switch can only be used as a TFTP client. The remaining step after download
is just same as the occasion of the remote load with a FTP.
