1.1.3  Configuration Example: A Switch Operating as an FTP Server 
I. Network requirements 
A switch operates as an FTP server and a remote PC as an FTP client.  
z  Create a user account on the FTP server with the user name “switch” and 
password “hello”. 
z  Configure the IP address 1.1.1.1 for a VLAN interface on the switch, and 2.2.2.2 
for the PC. Ensure the route between the two is reachable. 
The switch application named switch.bin is stored on the PC. Upload it to the FTP 
server through FTP to upgrade the application of the switch, and download the switch 
configuration file named vrpcfg.cfg from the switch to backup the configuration file.
