Switch-to-Switch Download
If you have two or more Switch 800Ts and/or the B-version of the Switch 2000
(HP J3100B) networked together, you can download the OS software from
one switch to another by using the Download OS feature in the switch console
interface. (The Switch 800T and the B-version of the Switch 2000 use the same
OS.) To do so:
1. Go to the Download OS screen in the switch to receive the download.
2. Enter the IP or IPX address of the remote switch containing the OS you
want to download.
3. Enter “OS” for the Remote File Name.
4. Execute the download.
Note The “A” version of the Switch 2000 uses OS software that is different from the
OS software used by the “B” version of the Switch 2000 and the Switch 800T.
For this reason, transferring OS software between an “A” version of the Switch
2000 and either a Switch 800T or a “B” version of the Switch 2000 is not
supported.
