[ftp] cd switch

# Run the put command to upload the configuration file named config.cfg to the FTP

server.

[ftp] put config.cfg

# Run the get command to download the file named switch.bin to the Flash memory of

the switch.

[ftp] get switch.bin

# Run the boot boot-loader command to specify the downloaded file (switch.bin) to be

the startup file used when the switch starts the next time, and then restart the switch.

Thus the switch application is upgraded.

<H3C> boot boot-loader switch.bin

<H3C> reboot

For information about the boot boot-loader command and how to specify the startup

file for a switch, refer to the “System Maintenance and Debugging” module of this

manual.

1.2 TFTP Configuration

1.2.1 Introduction to TFTP

Compared with FTP, TFTP (trivial file transfer protocol) features simple interactive

access interface and no authentication control. Therefore TFTP is applicable in the

networks where client-server interactions are relatively simple. TFTP is implemented

based on UDP. It transfers data through UDP port 69. Basic TFTP operations are

described in RFC1986.

TFTP transmission is initiated by clients, as described in the following:

z To download a file, a client sends Read Request packets to the TFTP server, then

receives data from the TFTP server, and sends acknowledgement packets to the

TFTP server.

z To upload a file, a client sends Write Request packets to the TFTP server, then

sends data to the TFTP server, and receives acknowledgement packets from the

TFTP server.
