1.1.1 File System Overview
A major function of the file system is to manage storage devices. It allows you to
perform operations such as directory create and delete, and file copy and display. If an
operation, delete or overwrite for example, may cause problems such as data loss or
corruption, the file system will ask you to confirm the operation by default.
Depending on the managed object, file system operations fall into Directory Operations,
File Operations, Storage Device Operations, and File System Prompt Mode Setting.

z As the delete /unreserved file-url command deletes a file permanently and the
action cannot be undone, use it with caution.
z The execute command cannot ensure the execution of each command. For
example, if a certain command is not correctly configured, the system will omit this
command and go to the next one. Therefore, each configuration command in a
batch file must be a standard configuration command, meaning the valid
configuration information which can be displayed with the display
current-configuration command after this command is configured successfully;
otherwise, this command may not be executed correctly.

1.1.4 Storage Device Operations
I. Naming rules
Naming rules of the storage devices are as follows:
z If there is only one storage device of the same type on the device, the physical
device name of the storage device is the storage device name. For example, for a
device with only one CF card, the physical device name of the CF card is cf.
z If there are multiple storage devices with the same type on the device, the physical
device name of the storage device is composed of the storage device type and the
serial number of the storage device. The serial number is displayed in English
letters such as a, b or c. For example, for a device with multiple CF cards, the
physical device name of the first CF card is cfa, and that of the second is cfb, and
so on.
z If storage device partitioning is supported on the device, the name of the partition
device is composed of the physical device name and partition number. The serial
numbers of partitions are displayed in numbers such as 0, 1 or 2. For a device with
only one CF card for example, the second partition of the CF card is cf1; for a
device with multiple CF cards, the third partition of the second CF card is cfb2. If
there is only one partition on the CF card, the partition name is the physical device
name followed by 0.
II. Memory space management
You can use the fixdisk command to restore the space of a storage device or the
format command to format a specified storage device as shown in the following table:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Restore the space of a
storage device
fixdisk device
Optional
Available in user view
Format a storage device
format device
Optional
Available in user view
You may use the two commands when some space of a storage device becomes
inaccessible due to abnormal operations for example.
Operation Manual – File System Management
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 File System Management Configuration
1-5
Caution:
When you format a storage device, all the files stored on it are erased and cannot be
restored. In particular, if there is a startup configuration file on the storage device,
formatting the storage device results in loss of the startup configuration file.
1.1.5 File System Prompt Mode Setting
The file system provides the following two prompt modes:
z alert: where the system warns you about operations that may bring undesirable
consequence such as file corruption or data loss.
z quiet: where the system does not do that in any cases.
To prevent undesirable consequence resulted from misoperations, the alert mode is
preferred.
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view
system-view
Set the operation prompt
mode of the file system
file prompt { alert |
quiet }
Optional
The default is alert.

1.2 Configuration File Management
The device provides the configuration file management function with a user-friendly
operating interface for you to manage the configuration files conveniently.
This section covers these topics:
z Configuration File Overview
z Saving the Current Configuration
z Erasing the Startup Configuration File
z Specifying a Configuration File for Next Startup
z Backing up/Restoring the Configuration File for Next Startup
1.2.1 Configuration File Overview
A configuration file saves the device configurations in command lines in text format.
You can view configuration information conveniently through the configuration files.
I. Types of configuration
The configuration of a device falls into two types:
z Saved configuration, a configuration file used for initialization. If this file does not
exist, the default parameters are used.
z Current configuration, which refers to the user’s configuration during the operation
of a device. This configuration is stored in the flash. It is removed when the device
is rebooting.
II. Format of configuration file
Configuration files are saved as text files. They:
z Save configuration in the form of commands.
Operation Manual – File System Management
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 File System Management Configuration
1-7
z Save only non-default configuration settings.
z List commands in sections by view in this view order: system, interface, routing
protocol, and so on. Sections are separated with one or multiple blank lines or
comment lines that start with a pound sign (#).
z End with a return.
III. Startup with the configuration file
The following steps are taken during system startup:
1) If you specify a configuration file and this file exists, the device will initialize its
configuration based on this file.
2) If you specify a configuration file but this file does not exist, the device will:
z Initialize with the default configuration file if it exists;
z Or initialize with empty configuration if the default configuration file does not exist.
1.2.2 Saving the Current Configuration
You can modify the configuration on your device at the command line interface (CLI). To
use the modified configuration for your subsequent startups, you must save it (using the
save command) as a configuration file.
I. Modes in saving the configuration
z Fast saving mode. This is the mode when you use the save command without the
safely keyword. The mode saves the file quicker but is likely to lose the original
configuration file if the device reboots or the power fails during the process.
z Safe mode. This is the mode when you use the save command with the safely
keyword. The mode saves the file slower but can retain the configuration file in the
device even if the device reboots or the power fails during the process.
Caution:
Device reboot or the power failure during configuration file saving may result in loss of
the configuration file for next startup. In this case, the device should be started with
empty configuration and after the device starts, you need to re-specify a configuration
file for next startup. Refer to
Specifying a Configuration File for Next Startup for details.
Operation Manual – File System Management
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 File System Management Configuration
1-8
Follow the step below to save the current configuration:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Save the current
configuration
save [ file-name | safely ]
Required
Available in any view
Note:
z Fast saving mode is suitable for environments where power supply is stable. The
safe mode, however, is preferred where stable power supply is unavailable or
remote maintenance is involved.
z The extension name of the configuration file must be .cfg.
z If you press <Enter> after entering the save command, you can save the
configuration file in an interactive way. In this way, you can use the default path or
enter a filename to specify a new path, but the suffix of the filename must be “.cfg”
and the path must be the path of the storage device on the AMB (active main board).
1.2.3 Erasing the Startup Configuration File
With the configuration file erased, your device will boot up with the default configuration
next time it is powered on.
You may need to erase the configuration file for one of these reasons:
z After you upgrade software, the original configuration file does not match the new
software.
z The startup configuration file is corrupted or not the one you need.
Follow the step below to erase the configuration file:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Erase the startup
configuration file from the
storage device

Available in user view
Caution:
The configuration file must use “.cfg” as its extension name and the startup
configuration file must be saved under the root directory of the device.
1.2.5 Backing up/Restoring the Configuration File for Next Startup
I. Backup/restore function overview
The backup/restore function allows you to backup or restore a configuration file for next
startup through operations at the CLI. TFTP is used for intercommunication between
the device and the server. The backup function enables you to backup a configuration
file to the TFTP server, while the restore function enables you to download the
configuration file from the TFTP server for next startup.
II. Backing up the configuration file for next startup
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Back up the configuration
file for next startup

Chapter 2 FTP Configuration
When configuring FTP, go to these sections for information you are interested in:
z FTP Overview
z Configuring the FTP Client
z Configuring the FTP Server
z Displaying and Maintaining FTP
2.1 FTP Overview
2.1.1 Introduction to FTP
The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is an application layer protocol for sharing files
between server and client over a TCP/IP network.
FTP uses TCP ports 20 and 21 for file transfer. Port 20 is used to transmit data, and port
21 to transmit control commands. Refer to RFC 959 for details of FTP basic operation.
FTP transmits files in two modes:
z Binary mode for program file transmission
z ASCII mode for text file transmission
2.1.2 Implementation of FTP
FTP adopts the server/client model. Your switch can function either as client or as
server (as shown in Figure 2-1). They work in the following way:
z When the switch serves as the FTP client, a PC user first telnets or connects to the
switch through an emulation program, then executes the ftp command to establish
the connection to the remote FTP server, and gain access to the files on the server.
If the remote FTP server supports anonymous FTP, the device can log onto it
directly; if not, the device must obtain FTP username and password first to log
onto the remote FTP server.
z When the switch serves as the FTP server, it must be configured with an IP
address so that a user running FTP client program can access it. For the sake of
security, the switch does not support anonymous FTP. Therefore, you must use
an authenticated username and password. By default, authenticated users can
access the root directory of the switch.
Operation Manual – File System Management
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 FTP Configuration
2-2
Figure 2-1 Network diagram for FTP
Caution:
z The FTP function is available when a route exists between the FTP server and the
FTP client.
z When a device serving as the FTP server logs onto the device using IE, some IE
functions are not supported because multiple user connections are established, and
the device supports only one connection currently.
2.2 Configuring the FTP Client
2.2.1 Establishing an FTP Connection
To access an FTP server, the FTP client must connect with it. Two ways are available
for the connection: using the ftp command to establish the connection directly; using
the open command in FTP client view.
Multiple routes may exist for the FTP client to successfully access the FTP server. You
can specify one by configuring the source address of the packets of the FTP client to
meet the requirement of the security policy of the FTP client. You can configure the
source address by configuring the source interface or source IP address. The primary
IP address configured on the source interface is the source address of the transmitted
packets. The source address of the transmitted packets is selected following these
rules:
z If no source address of the FTP client is specified, a device uses the IP address of
the interface determined by the routing protocol as the source IP address to
communicate with an FTP server.
z If the source address is specified with the ftp client source or ftp command, this
source address is used to communicate with an FTP server.
z If the source address is specified with the ftp client source command and then
with the ftp command, the address specified with the latter one is used to
communicate with an FTP server.
Operation Manual – File System Management
H3C S3610&S5510 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 FTP Configuration
2-3
The source address specified with the ftp client source command is valid for all ftp
connections and the source address specified with the ftp command is valid only for the
current FTP connection.

Note:
z If no primary IP address is configured on the source interface, the FTP connection
fails.
z If you use the ftp client source command to first configure the source interface and
then the source IP address of the transmitted packets, the new source IP address
will overwrite the current one, and vice versa.

2.3 Configuring the FTP Server
2.3.1 Configuring FTP Server Operating Parameters
The FTP server uses two modes to update files when you upload files (use the put
command) to the FTP server:
z In fast mode, the FTP server starts writing data to the Flash after file transfer
completes. This protects the files intended to be overwritten on the device from
