Table 8-2. Download File to Switch Fields
Field Description
File Type Specify what type of file you want to download to the switch:
• Code: The code is the system software image, which is saved in one
of two flash sectors called images (image1 and image2). The active
image stores the active copy; while the other image stores a second
copy. The device boots and runs from the active image. If the active
image is corrupt, the system automatically boots from the non-active
image. This is a safety feature for faults occurring during the boot
upgrade process.
• Text Configuration: A text-based configuration file enables you to edit
a configured text file (startup-config) offline as needed without having
to translate the contents for Smart Switch to understand. The most
common usage of text-based configuration is to upload a working
configuration from a device, edit it offline to personalize it for another
similar device (i.e., change the device name, serial number, IP
address, etc.), and download it to that device.
• SSL Trusted Root Certificate PEM File: SSL Trusted Root Certificate
File (PEM Encoded).
• SSL Server Certificate PEM File: SSL Server Certificate File (PEM
Encoded).
• SSL DH Weak Encryption Parameter PEM File: SSL Diffie-Hellman
Weak Encryption Parameter File (PEM Encoded).
