Image and File Management Overview
What Files Can Be Managed?
Dell EMC Networking N-Series switches maintain multiple types of files on
the flash file system. Keywords are used in the CLI to differentiate among the
file types. Table 14-1 describes the files that can be managed. The table also
lists the type of action that can be taken on the file, which is one or more of
the following:
• Download the file to the switch from a remote system (or USB flash drive).
• Upload the file from the switch to a remote system (or USB flash drive).
• Copy the file from one location on the file system to another location.
NOTE: For information about the Auto Configuration feature that enables the
switch to automatically upgrade the image or load a new configuration file during
the boot process, see
DHCP and USB Auto-Configuration .
