Remote Switch APP Upgrade Configuration Example

Network requirements
Telnet to the switch from a PC remotely and download applications from the FTP server to the Flash
memory of the switch. Update the switch software by using the device management commands through
CLI.
The switch acts as the FTP client, and the remote PC serves as both the configuration PC and the FTP
server.
Perform the following configuration on the FTP server.
Configure an FTP user, whose name is switch and password is hello. Authorize the user with the
read-write right on the directory Switch on the PC.
Make configuration so that the IP address of a VLAN interface on the switch is 1.1.1.1, the IP
address of the PC is 2.2.2.2, and the switch and the PC is reachable to each other.
The host software switch.app and the Boot ROM file boot.btm of the switch are stored in the directory
switch on the PC. Use FTP to download the switch.app and boot.btm files from the FTP server to the
switch.
