Chapter 12: File Download and Upload Commands
162
For an Xmodem upload, note the following:
❑ 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:
❑ There must be a node on your network that contains the TFTP
server software and the file to be downloaded must be stored on
that server.
❑ Start the TFTP server software before you perform the download
command.
❑ The switch on which you are downloading the file must have an IP
address and subnet mask, such as a master switch of an enhanced
stack. You cannot use TFTP on a slave switch because that type of
switch typically does not have an IP address. Perform the
download from a local management session of the switch using
Xmodem, or, switch to switch using the REMOTESWITCH option.
Examples
The following command uses Xmodem to upload a switch’s
configuration file called “sw22 boot.cfg” from a local management
session:
upload method=xmodem file="sw22 boot.cfg"
After entering the command, use your terminal emulator program to
indicate where you want to store the file on your computer and its
filename.
The following command uploads a switch’s configuration file using TFTP:
upload method=tftp destfile=switch4.cfg server=149.36.11.21
file=switch4.cfg
