Using Web-Based Management for the Business Policy Switch 2000
Storing and retrieving a switch configuration file from a
TFTP server
You can store switch and stack configuration parameters on a TFTP server. You
can retrieve the configuration parameters of a standalone switch or an entire stack
and use the retrieved parameters to automatically configure a replacement switch
or stack.
To store a switch or stack configuration, you must set up the file on your TFTP
server and set the filename read/write permission to enabled.
To download the Business Policy Switch configuration file, a properly configured
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server must be present in your network, and
the policy switch must have an IP address. To learn how to configure the switch or
stack IP address, refer to “Configuring BootP, IP, and gateway settings” on
page 54.
To store or retrieve a switch or stack configuration file:
1 From the main menu, choose Configuration > Configuration File.
The Configuration File Download/Upload page opens (Figure 33).
3 The switch programs the new
software image into the flash
memory.
100 Mb/s port status LEDs (ports 1 to 8 only): The LEDs begin to
turn on in succession beginning with port 1, which indicates that the
new software image is being programmed into the switch’s flash
memory. When LEDs 1 to 8 are all on, the new software image has
been programmed successfully into the switch’s flash memory.
4 The switch resets automatically. After the reset completes, the new software image initiates the
switch self-test, which comprises various diagnostic routines and
subtests.
The LEDs display various patterns to indicate that the subtests are in
progress.
