3. Type the host name or IP address, user name, password, and fully qualified path to the file
release.plist.
You can enter the IP address in either IPv4 or IPv6 format.
The path name should follow the structure below:
//<directory>/<fos_version_directory>/release.plist
where the <directory> is the path up to the entry point of <fos_version_directory> and
<fos_version_directory> is where the unzipped version of Fabric OS has been put. For
example:
//directory_1/my_directory/v5.2.0/release.plist
4. Select the protocol type in the Protocol Type field.
If you choose “Secure Copy Protocol (SCP),” you cannot specify “anonymous” in the User field.
5. Click Apply.
The firmware download begins. You can monitor the firmware download status on the
Firmware Download progress bar.
About halfway through the download process, connection to the switch is lost and Web Tools
invalidates the current session. (Web Tools invalidates all windows if upfront login is enabled.)
6. Close all Web Tools windows and log in again.
If the firmware download is in progress when you log in, you can continue to monitor its
progress.
