This command provides a command-line version of some of the functionality available in the Ridgeline
Configuration Manager.
Using the TransferMgr Command
The TransferMgr utility is located in the Ridgeline bin directory, <Ridgeline_install_dir>/client/bin.
By default this is
\Program Files\Extreme Networks\Ridgeline 3.0\client\bin in Windows, or
/opt/ExtremeNetworks/Ridgeline3.0/client/bin in a UNIX environment.
This command includes options for specifying Ridgeline server access information, the transfer function
to be performed (upload, download, incremental download, or ExtremeWare image download), the
device on which to perform the operation on, and the file location on the server.
The syntax of the command is as follows:
TransferMgr -user <Ridgeline username> -upload -dip <device address> <upload
location options>
TransferMgr -user <Ridgeline username> -download <filename>
-dip <device address>
TransferMgr -user <Ridgeline username> -incremental <filename>
-dip <device address>
TransferMgr -user <Ridgeline username> -software <filename>
-dip <device address> {primary | secondary}
The Ridgeline user name, one of the four transfer options, and a device IP address are required. Other
options are optional.
Table 17 specifies the options you can use with this command:
