After uploading new firmware on the switch, the switch continues to boot by using
the active image (the old version) until you change the status of the new image to
be the active image by using the procedure in the “Selecting the Active Image”
section. Then boot the switch by using the process described in the Rebooting
the Switch section.
To download or backup a system or language file:
STEP 1 Click Administration > File Management > Upgrade/Backup Firmware/
Language. The Upgrade/Backup Firmware/Language page opens.
STEP 2 Click the Transfer Method. If you selected TFTP, go to STEP 3. If you selected
HTTP, go to STEP 4.
STEP 3 If you selected TFTP, enter the parameters as described in this step. Otherwise,
skip to STEP 4.
Select the Save Action.
If for the Save Action you select Upgrade to specify that the file type on the
switch is to be replaced with a new version of that file type located on a TFTP
server, do the following. Otherwise, go to the next procedure in this step.
a. File Type—Select the destination file type. Only valid file types are shown.
(The file types are described in the Files and File Types section.)
b. IP Version—Select whether an IPv4 or an IPv6 address is used.
c. IPv6 Address Type—Select the IPv6 address type (if IPv6 is used). The

link. A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not routable, and can be used
for communication only on the local network. Only one link local address is
supported. If a link local address exists on the interface, this entry replaces
the address in the configuration.
• Global—The IPv6 address is a global Unicast IPV6 type that is visible and
reachable from other networks.
d. Link Local Interface—Select the link local interface (if IPv6 is used) from the
list.
