Tip:
Using FTP for data transfer:
If you are using FTP for this installation, be sure that the switch is configured with
the appropriate host name and password using the following commands:
• For CLI:
- config bootconfig host user
- config bootconfig host password
• For ACLI:
- boot config host user
- boot config host password
Using TFTP for data transfer:
If a host password is configured, the switch uses FTP to transfer data from the
switch to the server.
If no host password is configured, the switch uses TFTP for the data transfer. To
clear the host password, specify a blank value using the host password
command:
• For CLI: config bootconfig host password ""
• For ACLI: boot config host password ""
