Managing Firmware and Configurations

The WMIC sends the first valid password in this list:
•
•
•
The username and password must be associated with an account on the FTP server. If you are writing to
the server, the FTP server must be properly configured to accept the FTP write request from you.
Use the ip ftp username and ip ftp password commands to specify a username and password for all
copies. Include the username in the archive download-sw or archive upload-sw privileged EXEC
command if you want to specify a username only for that operation.
If the server has a directory structure, the image file is written to or copied from the directory associated
with the username on the server. For example, if the image file resides in the home directory of a user
on the server, specify that user's name as the remote username.
Before you begin downloading or uploading an image file by using FTP, perform these tasks:

For more information, refer to the documentation for your FTP server.
Downloading an Image File by Using FTP
You can download a new image file and overwrite the current image or keep the current image.
For the download and upload algorithms to operate properly, do not rename image directories.
Caution
OL-5816-10
The username specified in the archive download-sw or archive upload-sw privileged EXEC
command if a username is specified.
The username set by the ip ftp username username global configuration command if the command
is configured.
Anonymous.
The password specified in the archive download-sw or archive upload-sw privileged EXEC
command if a password is specified.
The password set by the ip ftp password password global configuration command if the command
is configured.
The WMIC forms a password named username@apname.domain. The variable username is the
username associated with the current session, apname is the configured hostname, and domain is the
domain of the WMIC.
Ensure that the WMIC has a route to the FTP server. The WMIC and the FTP server must be in the
same subnetwork if you do not have a router to route traffic between subnets. Verify connectivity to
the FTP server by using the ping command.
If you are accessing the WMIC through a Telnet session and you do not have a valid username, make
sure that the current FTP username is the one that you want to use for the FTP download. You can
enter the show users privileged EXEC command to view the valid username. If you do not want to
use this username, create a new FTP username by using the ip ftp username username global
configuration command. This new name will be used during all archive operations. The new
username is stored in NVRAM. If you are accessing the WMIC through a Telnet session and you
have a valid username, this username is used, and you do not need to set the FTP username. Include
the username in the archive download-sw or archive upload-sw privileged EXEC command if you
want to specify a username for that operation only.
When you upload an image file to the FTP server, it must be properly configured to accept the write
request from the user on the WMIC.
