Backup Manager
The Backup Manager page provides a means to save a backup copy of the switch’s image or configu-
ration files on a local system or network directory.
The page displays different options depending on the protocol and image or file type selected for the
backup. As shown in the example in Figure 10-1, TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) has been selected
as the backup method for saving the code (entire image) onto a server.
To display the Backup Manager page, click the Maintenance > Backup Manager.
