System Files
System files are files that contain configuration information, firmware images or
boot code.
Various actions can be performed with these files, such as: selecting the firmware
file from which the device boots, copying various types of configuration files
internally on the device, or copying files to or from an external device, such as an
external server.
The possible methods of file transfer are:
• Internal copy
• HTTP/HTTPS that uses the facilities that the browser provides
• TFTF/SCP client, requiring a TFTP/SCP server
