I. Prerequisites
If FTP or TFTP is used, the IRF fabric and the PC working as the FTP/TFTP server or FTP
client can reach each other.
Prepare the FTP server or TFTP server program yourself for the PC. The switch series
does not come with these software programs.
II. FTP download from a server
You can use the switch as an FTP client to download files from an FTP server.
To download a file from an FTP server, for example, the server at 10.10.110.1:
1) Run an FTP server program on the server, configure an FTP username and password,
specify the working directory and copy the file, for example, newest.ipe, to the
directory.
2) Perform the ftp command in user view on the IRF fabric to access the FTP server.
