HTTP File Export

Use the HTTP File Export page to export files of various types from the switch to the
management system through an HTTP session by using your web browser.

To export a file from the switch to another system by using HTTP:

You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.

2.

Launch a web browser.

3.

In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see

personalize it for another similar device (for example, change the device name or IP
address), and download it to that device.
