• Reboot the switch using the reboot command.
If you have followed upgrade instructions, your original
configuration should be operational.
If you did not have an older configuration, you may perform a
minimal configuration for the switch through the command line

generated during the upgrade procedure.
Using TFTP to Upload the
Configuration
You can upload the current configuration to a TFTP server on your
network. The uploaded ASCII file retains the command-line
interface (CLI) format. This allows you to:
• Modify the configuration using a text editor, and later download a
copy of the file to the same switch, or to one or more different
switches.
• Send a copy of the configuration file to Intel Customer Support
for problem-solving.
• Automatically upload the configuration file every day, so that the
TFTP server can archive the configuration daily. Because the
filename is not changed, the configured file stored in the TFTP
server is overwritten every day.
To upload the configuration, use the command:
upload configuration [<ipaddress> | <hostname>]
<filename> {every <time>}
where:
• ipaddress is the IP address of the TFTP server.
•
hostname is the hostname of the TFTP server. (You must enable
DNS to use this option.)
•
filename is the name of the ASCII file. The filename can be up
to 255 characters long, and cannot include any spaces, commas,
quotation marks, or special characters.
•
every <time> specifies the time of day you want the
configuration automatically uploaded on a daily basis. If not
