4. In the Host IP Address field, enter the local host IP address of the firmware file. If you have not
configured file transfer options, check the Save Settings to Options check box to save your FTP settings
as your file transfer options.
NOTE: You must click Download to commit the file transfer options. If you close this window, the file
transfer options do not apply.
5. In the Remote User Name and Password Required for FTP fields, enter your user ID and password for
the FTP server.
6. To populate the Firmware file field, click Browse to browse the local host and select the firmware file.
For Fabric OS 2.6.x and Fabric OS 3.x switches, continue with step 7.
For Fabric OS 4.x switches, skip to step 9.
7. Depending on where your FTP home directory is located (for example, c:\Inetpub\ftproot), you
probably unzipped the Fabric OS 2.6.x or 3.x firmware file to a directory such as:
C:/Inetpub/ftproot/2.6.x/v2.6.2 (where v2.6.2 is the firmware filename)
C:/Inetpub/ftproot/3.x/v3.2.0_rc1 (where v3.2.0_rc1 is the firmware filename)
The Firmware File field contains the path (except for the drive designation C:) if you use the Browse
button to select the firmware file.
8. Delete the extra directory information (/Inetpub/ftproot/).
The Firmware File field should contain only one of the following (for 2.6.x and 3.x switches
respectively):
2.6.x/v2.6.2
3.x/v3.2.0_rc1
Skip to step 12.
9. Depending on where your FTP home directory is located (for example, c:\Inetpub\ftproot), you
probably unzipped the Fabric OS 4.4.x firmware file to a directory such as:
C:\Inetpub\ftproot\4.4.x\v4.4.0_rc1 (where v4.4.0_rc1 is the firmware filename)
The Firmware File field contains the path (except for the drive designation C:), and the backslashes are
changed to forward slashes if you use the Browse button to select the firmware file.
