GS752TP, GS728TP, and GS728TPP Gigabit Smart Switches
Download a File to the Switch
The switch supports system file downloads from a remote system to the switch by using
either TFTP or HTTP.
Download File Types
The following types of files can be downloaded to the switch:
Archive. The archive is the system software image, which is saved in one of two flash
sectors called images (image1 and image2). The active image stores the active copy
and the other image stores a second copy. The device boots and runs from the active
image. If the active image is corrupt, the system automatically boots from the
non-active image. This is a safety feature for faults occurring during the boot upgrade
process.
Text Configuration. You can edit a text-based configuration file (startup-config)
offline as needed without having to translate the contents for the switch to
understand. The most common usage of text-based configuration is to upload a
working configuration from a device, edit it offline to personalize it for another similar
device (for example, change the device name, IP address), and download it to that
device.
Boot. File that contains code that runs when the switch is brought up. It performs
initiation actions and loads the software.
The Download menu contains links that provide access to the features described in the
following sections:
TFTP File Download
HTTP File Download
TFTP File Download
Use the TFTP Download File screen to download device software, the image file,
configuration files, and SSL files from a TFTP server to the switch.
You can also download files through HTTP. See HTTP File Download for more information.
Before you download a file to the switch, the following conditions must be true:
The file to download from the TFTP server is on the server in the appropriate directory.
The file is in the correct format.
The switch has a path to the TFTP server.
