1. Copy the software image file to the appropriate TFTP directory on the workstation.
2. Log into the switch through the console port or through a Telnet session.
3. Download the software image from the TFTP server using the copy java command
in Privileged (Enable) mode:
device-name#copy java <TFTP URL> [<destination file name>]
Example:
device-name#copy java tftp://192.192.54.10/NI M2404WebViewL3-

NOTE The switch remains operational while the image is downloaded.
The Java image is downloaded into /Java directory.
4. Use the show version command to check the Java version on the switch.
Software Upgrade via Ethernet Port (Outband)
The switch has an Ethernet port which allows the user to access it for management purposes or
software upgrades. This port, labeled ETH, is on the left side of the switch’s front panel and is
not one of the switched ports. In order to configure this port for IP, the following commands
must be used (from config mode):
device-name(config)#interface Outband0
device-name(config Outband0)#ip addr 10.1.1.7/8
This command will assign the IP address 10.1.1.7 and the netmask 255.0.0.0.
In order to see the current configuration of this IP interface, the following command should be
used (from Privileged (Enable) mode):
device-name#show ip interfaces
In order to save the new Outband0 interface IP address, use the write command (from
Privileged (Enable) mode).
