File Transfers
Downloading Switch Software
All files have read-write permission. Several SFTP commands, such as
create or remove, are not allowed and return an error message. The
switch displays the following files:
/
+---cfg
| running-config
| startup-config
+---log
| crash-data
| crash-log
| event log
+---os
| primary
| secondary
\---ssh
+---mgr_keys
| authorized_keys
\---oper_keys
authorized_keys
Once you have configured your switch for secure file transfers with SCP and
SFTP, files can be copied to or from the switch in a secure (encrypted)
environment and TFTP is no longer necessary.
Using Xmodem to Download Switch Software From
a PC or UNIX Workstation
This procedure assumes that:
The switch is connected via the Console RS-232 port to a PC operating as
a terminal. (Refer to the Installation and Getting Started Guide you
received with the switch for information on connecting a PC as a terminal
and running the switch console interface.)
The switch software is stored on a disk drive in the PC.
The terminal emulator you are using includes the Xmodem binary transfer
feature. (For example, in the HyperTerminal application included with
Windows NT, you would use the Send File option in the T
ransfer dropdown
menu.)
