GS108T and GS110TP Smart Switch Software Administration Manual To access the TFTP File Download page, click Maintenance Download TFTP File Download. Figure 7-4 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. To download a file to the switch from a TFTP server: 1. From the File Type menu, Specify what type of file you want to download to the switch: • Code: The code 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; while 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: A text-based configuration file enables you to edit a configured text 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, serial number, IP address), and download it to that device. 7-6 Maintenance v1.0, April 2010
