The LOCAL upload method uploads the files from the switch’s appblock
area to the switch’s file system, either flash memory or a compact flash
card.

A REMOTESWITCH upload method uploads a file through enhanced
stacking.

The DESTFILE parameter specifies a name for the file when stored on the
TFTP server. This parameter is used for both TFTP and local uploads.

The SERVER parameter specifies the IP address of the network node
containing the TFTP server software. The uploaded file is stored on this
node. This parameter is only required for a TFTP upload.

The FILE or SRCFILE parameter specifies the name of the file that you
want to upload from the switch. To view the files stored in the file system of
a switch, see “SHOW FILE” on page 177.

You can also specify the location of the file, either in flash memory (flash:)
or on a compact flash card (cflash:). The default is flash memory.

Before uploading a file, note the following:

ˆ

When you name an uploaded file, you should give it the three-letter
extension that corresponds to its file type. The extensions are listed in
Table 2.

ˆ

To upload the AT-S63 management image, specify APPLBLOCK. (The
AT-S63 management image is not listed in a switch’s file system.)

For an Xmodem upload, note the following:

ˆ

Xmodem can download a file only onto the switch on which you started
the local management session. You cannot use Xmodem to download
a file onto a switch accessed through enhanced stacking.

For a TFTP upload, note the following:
