All the configurations in this chapter are performed in the case that a reachable route exists between FTP/TFTP server and client. For the related configurations of IP addresses and routing protocols, refer to the related sections in this manual.

Configuring FTP Client

Network Diagram

Figure 1-1 Network diagram for configuring FTP client

Networking and Configuration Requirements

As shown in Figure 1-1:

l Use your device as an FTP client to download a startup file from the FTP server.

l The IP address of the FTP server is 10.1.1.1/16.

l On the FTP server, an FTP user has been created for the FTP client, with the username being abc and the password being pwd.

# You can use the boot-loader command to specify the downloaded file as the main startup file for next startup. Then restart the device and the startup file of the device is updated.

<Sysname> boot-loader file bbb.bin main

<Sysname> reboot

l Startup files for next startup must be saved under the root directory of the device. You can copy or move a file to change the path of it to the root directory. For the description of the corresponding command, refer to the File System Management Configuration Guide.

l About the S7500E switch,the startup file must use .bin as its extension name

l When you specify a main startup file on an S7500E switch, you need to provide the slot number in the boot-loader command. For example, boot-loader file bbb.app slot 1 main.

Complete Configuration

The commands in this configuration guide are one-time commands and will not be saved in the configuration file; therefore complete configuration is not involved.

Configuration Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when configuring FTP client:

l FTP transmits files in two modes: binary mode for program file transmission and ASCII mode for text file transmission.

l You cannot specify the main/backup startup files for the next startup on the S3610&S5510 series switches.

Configuration Procedure

l Configuration on Device (FTP Server)

# Create an FTP user abc, setting its password to pwd.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] local-user abc

[Sysname-luser-abc] password simple pwd

# Specify abc to use FTP, and authorize its access to a certain directory.

# You can use the boot-loader command to specify the uploaded file as the main startup file for next startup. Then restart the device and the startup file of the device is updated.

<Sysname> boot-loader file bbb.bin

<Sysname> reboot

l The startup files for next startup specified by the boot-loader command must be saved under the root directory of the device. You can copy or move a file to change the path of it to the root directory. For description of the corresponding command, refer to the File System Management Configuration Guide.

l About the S7500E switch,the startup file must use .bin as its extension name

l When you specify a main startup file on an S7500E switch, you need to provide the slot number in the boot-loader command. For example, boot-loader file bbb.app slot 1 main.

l The operation procedure for upgrading the configuration file with FTP is the same as that for uploading files. Note that you need to put the new file under the root directory when upgrading the configuration file with FTP.

l After you finish upgrading the Boot ROM program through FTP, you need to execute the bootrom update command to refresh the system configuration.

Complete Configuration

ftp server enable

local-user abc

password simple pwd

work-directory flash:/

level 3

service-type ftp

Configuration Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when configuring FTP client:

When the device serves as the FTP server, if the client is to perform the write operations (upload, delete, create, and delete for example) on the device’s file system, the FTP login users must be level 3 users; if the client is to perform other operations, for example, read operation, the device has no restriction on the user level of the FTP login users, that is, any level from 0 to 3 is allowed.

Configuring TFTP Client

Network Diagram

Figure 1-3 Network diagram for configuring TFTP client

Networking and Configuration Requirements

As shown in 0:

l Use a PC as the TFTP server and your device as the TFTP client.

l PC uses IP address 1.2.1.1./16 and a TFTP working directory has been defined for the client.

l On your device, VLAN-interface 1 is assigned an IP address 1.1.1.1/16. Make sure that the port connected to PC belongs to VLAN 1.

l TFTP a startup file from PC for upgrading and a configuration file config.cfg to PC for backup.

Configuration Procedure

l Configure PC (TFTP Server). On the PC, enable TFTP server and configure a TFTP working directory. The configuration procedure is omitted.

l Configure the switch (TFTP Client)

If the free memory space of the device is not big enough, you should delete the existing programs before downloading new ones.

# Download an application file aaa.bin from the TFTP server.

<Sysname> tftp 1.2.1.1 get aaa.bin bbb.bin

# Upload a configuration file config.cfg to the TFTP server.

<Sysname> tftp 1.2.1.1 put config.bin configback.bin

# You can use the boot-loader command to specify the uploaded file as the main startup file for next startup. Then restart the device and the startup file of the device is updated.

<Sysname> boot-loader file bbb.bin main

<Sysname> reboot

l Startup files for next startup must be saved under the root directory. You can copy or move a file to change the path of it to the root directory. For description of the corresponding command, refer to the File System Management Configuration Guide.

l About the S7500E switch,the startup file must use .bin as its extension name

l When you specify a main startup file on an S7500E switch, you need to provide the number argument in the boot-loader command. For example, boot-loader file bbb.app slot 1 main.
