Downloading Files
You can use the J-Web interface to download a copy of an individual log, temporary, or
crash file from the switching platform. When you download a file, it is not deleted from
the file system.
To download files with the J-Web interface:
1. In the J-Web interface, select Maintain > Files.
2. In the Download and Delete Files section, Click one of the following options:
•
Log Files—Log files in the /var/log directory on the switch.
•
Temporary Files—Lists the temporary files in the /var/tmp directory on the switching
platform.
•
Jailed Temporary Files (Install, Session, and so on)—Lists the files in the /var/jail/tmp
directory on the switching platform.
•
Crash (Core) Files—Lists the core files in the /var/crash directory on the switching
platform.
The J-Web interface displays the files located in the directory.
3. Select the files that you want to download and click Download.
4. Choose a location for the saved file.
The file is saved as a text file, with a .txt file extension.
