application block so that its used by the switch as its active image file,
refer to “UPLOAD METHOD=LOCAL” on page 290.

Note

Downloading an AT-S63 image file into a switch’s file system rather
than into the application block should be perform with care. The file
will take up 2 megabytes of space in the file system.

If you download a file onto a flash memory card in the switch and later
want to copy the file from the card to a switch’s file system, refer to
“COPY” on page 256.

Syntax 1 Examples

This command downloads a new configuration file into the switch’s file
system using TFTP. The file is stored as “sw 111.cfg” on the TFTP server
and is given the name “sw56a.cfg” when it is stored in the switch’s file
system. The TFTP server has the IP address 149.55.55.55:

load method=tftp destfile=sw56a.cfg server=149.55.55.55
srcfile=”sw 111.cfg”

This command downloads an SSL certificate to the switch’s file system.
The file, which has the name “sw12_ssl.cer” on the TFTP server, retains
the same name when it is stored in the file system:

load method=tftp destfile=sw12_ssl.cer server=149.44.44.44
srcfile=sw12_ssl.cer

This command downloads a configuration file called “sw12.cfg onto a flash
memory card in the switch. The filename remains the same. The TFTP
server has the IP address 149.142.44.44:

load method=tftp destfile=cflash:sw12.cfg
server=149.142.44.44 srcfile=sw12.cfg

This command downloads a new version of the AT-S63 image file from a
TFTP server to the switch’s file system, changing the name from
“ats63v1_2_0.img” to “ats63.img”:

load method=tftp destfile=ats63.img server=149.11.11.11
srcfile=ats63v1_2_0.img

Since the file is downloaded to the switch’s file system and not to the
application block, it is not used as the switch’s active image file. If at some
point in the future you want to make it the active image file, refer to
“UPLOAD METHOD=LOCAL” on page 290.
