Configuring & Monitoring the Switch  73

To perform a TFTP download, you must first configure the 

ELS100-S24TX2M switch. This consists of programming the switch with 

an IP address, if this has not already been done, and entering the IP 

address of the TFTP server and the name of the upgrade file. To program 

the switch IP address, select the Management Setup Menu from the Main 

Menu screen, then select Network Configuration.

To download switch software via TFTP, do the following:

1.  Select Download Server IP Address from the TFTP Download Menu.

2.  Enter the TFTP server IP address and press [Enter].

3.  Select Download Filename and enter the file name to be downloaded 

from the TFTP server.

4.  If necessary, configure the address of an IP gateway to reach the 

server from the switch using the Gateway IP field in the Network 

Configuration: IP Configuration menu.

5.  Configure the TFTP server by copying the download file from the 

upgrade disk to an appropriate directory and starting the server.

6.  Select Process TFTP Download and press [Enter].

To verify that the TFTP download has been successfully completed, 

note the software version level displayed on the Switch Information 

screen accessible from the System Information Menu. This number 

should match the version number that appears on the upgrade disk.
