Firmware File
Name and, if necessary, directory path of the file (maximum 32 characters) from which you
want to load the new firmware or in which you want to save the current firmware.
SSL Private Key File
Name and directory path of the file from which you want to load the private SSL key to the
device. The entry in this box is restricted to a maximum of 32 characters.
SSL Certificate File
Name and directory path of the file from which you want to load the SSL certificate to the
device.
The entry in this box is restricted to a maximum of 32 characters.
Note
Since the private key and certificate belong together, files are save
d only after both the key
and certificate have been downloaded. When you load the certificate, it is checked to make
sure it matches the loaded key. A restart is required before the new SSL files are adopted.
Only private RSA keys with a maximum length of
1280 bytes are accepted, private keys
must not be password protected.
An SSL certificate must be PEM coded, its length must not exceed 2560 bytes.
How to load or save data over TFTP
1. Enter the IP address of the TFTP server in the "TFTP Server IP Address" text box.
2. Enter a name (maximum of 32 characters) for the file in which you want to save the data
or take the data from in the text box.
3. Click on the "Set Values" button before you make any further entries for saving or loading
the data.
4. Start the save / load function by clicking the relevant button "Save" or "Load".
After you load the configuration and the SSL certificate, the device restarts with the new
data.
Reusing configuration data
Saving and reading in configuration data reduces the effort if several IE switches have the
same configuration and when IP addresses are obtained over DHCP.
Note
Using the same configuration on multiple IE switches
The configuration of an IE switch cannot be loaded on every other IE switch.
You will find a list of compa
tible devices in the section "Using the same configuration on
multiple IE switches
(Page 383)".
Save the configuration data on a TFTP server after you have configured an IE switch. As an
alternative, you can save the data on your computer (Page 46).
