154 SW-MIB objects
Flash administration
The next six objects are related to firmware or configuration file management. The underlying method in
the transfer of the firmware or configuration file is based on either FTP or remote shell. If a password is
provided, FTP is used. If no password is provided, the remote shell is used.
Use one of the following methods to manage the firmware or switch configuration file in the switch flash.
Method 1
Set swFlashDLHost.0, swFlashDLUser.0, and swFlashDLFile.0 to appropriate host IP address in dot
notation (for example, 192.168.1.7), user name (for example, administrator), and file name of the
firmware or configuration file (for example, /home/fcswh/v4.4), respectively.
Method 2
1. Set swFlashDLPassword.0 to an appropriate value (for example, secret) if FTP is the desired method of
transfer.
2. Set swFlashDLAdmStatus.0 to 3 (swCfUpload) or 4 (swCfDownload), accordingly.
