NOTE
Make sure the software version you download is compatible with the switch. If you download an
incompatible version, the switch may not function properly.
● For uploading, you can specify multiple devices in one command. For the download options
(
-download, -incremental, and -software) you can specify only one device per command. If you
want to download to multiple devices, you must execute multiple TransferMgr commands.
TransferMgr Examples
The following examples illustrate the usage of these commands.
● To upload configuration information from device 10.20.30.40, enter the following command:
TransferMgr -user admin -upload -dip 10.20.30.40
This will place the device configuration information in the file 10_20_30_40.txt in the configs
directory under the TFTP root directory (by default
\Program Files\Extreme Networks\Ridgeline 3.0\user.war\tftp\configs).
● To upload and archive configuration information from device 10.20.30.40 managed by the Ridgeline
server running on host
snoopy on port 81, with Ridgeline login “master” and password “king,” enter
the following command:
TransferMgr -host snoopy -port 81 -user master -password king -upload -a -dip
10.20.30.40
Assuming the default location for the TFTP root directory, and assuming that this command was
executed on July 24, 2010 at 10:02 AM, this will place the device configuration information in the file
\Program Files\Extreme Networks\Ridgeline
3.0\user.war\tftp\configs\2010\07\24\10_20_30_40_1002.txt
.
● To download version 6.1.8 b11 of the ExtremeWare to an i-series device, enter the following
command:
TransferMgr -user admin -software v618b11.xtr -dip 10.20.30.40
The ImportResources Utility
The ImportResources utility allows you to import user and host resource definitions, and groups
containing those resources, from a source external to the Ridgeline system. You can import from an
Windows Domain server, an NIS server, or an LDAP directory. You can also import host and user
resource definitions from a tab-delimited text file.
Using the ImportResources Command
The ImportResources 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.
