FTP and TFTP Configuration
1-14
When you download a file that is larger than the free space of the switch’s flash
memory:
z If the TFTP server supports file size negotiation, file size negotiation will be
initiated between the switch and the server and the file download operation will be
aborted if the free space of the switch’s flash memory is found to be insufficient.
z If the TFTP server does not support file size negotiation, the switch will receive
data from the server until the flash memory is full. If there is more data to be
downloaded, the switch will prompt that the space is insufficient and delete the
data partially downloaded. File download fails.
TFTP-based file transmission can be performed in the following modes:
z Binary mode for program files transfer.
z ASCII mode for text files transfer.
Note:
z Before performing TFTP-related configurations, you need to configure IP addresses
for the TFPT client and the TFTP server, and make sure the route between the two
is reachable.
z A switch can only operate as a TFTP client.
