Figure 7-76. Switch History screen
Items on the screen above include:
• Sequence # – A counter incremented whenever an entry to the switch’s history log is made. The table displays
the last entry (highest sequence number) first.
• Time – Displays the time in days, hours, and minutes since the switch was last restarted the history log entry
was made.
• Log Text – Displays text describing the event that triggered the history log entry.
Maintenance
The Maintenance menu—which is the same whether the Switch is in Layer 2 mode or Layer 3 mode—offers a range of
utilities, including various TFTP services. Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) services allow the Switch firmware to be
upgraded by downloading a new firmware file from a TFTP server to the Switch. A configuration file can also be loaded into
the Switch, and Switch settings can be saved to a TFTP server. In addition, the Switch’s history log can be uploaded from
the Switch to a TFTP server.
