• If you are accessing the WMIC through a Telnet session and you do not have a valid username, make
sure that the current FTP username is the one that you want to use for the FTP download. You can
enter the show users privileged EXEC command to view the valid username. If you do not want to
use this username, create a new FTP username by using the ip ftp username username global
configuration command. This new name will be used during all archive operations. The new
username is stored in NVRAM. If you are accessing the WMIC through a Telnet session and you
have a valid username, this username is used, and you do not need to set the FTP username. Include
the username in the archive download-sw or archive upload-sw privileged EXEC command if you
want to specify a username for that operation only.
• When you upload an image file to the FTP server, it must be properly configured to accept the write
request from the user on the WMIC.
For more information, refer to the documentation for your FTP server.
Downloading an Image File by Using FTP

Caution For the download and upload algorithms to operate properly, do not rename image directories.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow Steps 1 through 7 to download a new image from an FTP
server and overwrite the existing image. To keep the current image, skip Step 7.
