NOTE:
•
When you back up an application file, if the file name already exists on the TFTP server,
the existing file will directly be overwritten.
• You can back up configuration files in the way you back up application files.
Upgrading applications using FTP
When application files are large, you can also upgrade them using the File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) to greatly shorten the upgrade and maintenance time.
As an application layer protocol in the TCP/IP suite, FTP is mainly used for file transfer
between remote hosts. FTP provides reliable and connection-oriented data transfer
services over TCP. FTP does not provide any access authorization or authentication
mechanism. The FTP program file is much larger than the TFTP program file.
You can upgrade application files using FTP on the BootWare menu or at the CLI.
No matter how you upgrade applications, a SecBlade card can serve as the FTP server or
FTP client.
Upgrading applications using FTP on the BootWare
menu
Step1 Set up an upgrade environment.
• The SecBlade card serves as the FTP client and the PC serves as the FTP server.
• Use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect Ethernet interface GigabitEthernet 0/2 on
the SecBlade card to the PC and ensure the connectivity between the SecBlade card
and the PC.
• Enable the FTP server on the PC and set the path where the application files are stored.
• Set the FTP username and password.
CAUTION:
• The FTP server program is not shipped with the SecBlade card and you need to
purchase and install it.
• When you upgrade application files using FTP on the BootWare menu, use Ethernet
interface GigabitEthernet 0/2 on the SecBlade card.
For step 2 to step 4, refer to the corresponding steps in “Upgrading applications using TFTP
on the BootWare ” on page 34.
