Network requirements
A switch operates as a TFTP client and a PC as the TFTP server.
■ The TFTP work directory is configured on the TFTP server.
■ The IP address of a VLAN interface on the switch is 1.1.1.1. The port through
which the switch connects with the PC belongs to the VLAN. The IP address of
the PC is 1.1.1.2.
The application named switch.app is stored on the PC. Download it to the switch
through TFTP, and upload the configuration file named vrpcfg.cfg to the work
directory on the PC to backup the configuration file.
