Dell s4810 TFPT Server Config
1. Power up switch.

3. Enable Ten gig interface.
4. Config static IP address on the Ten gig interface
5. Downloads open source TFTP server ( SolarWinds is my recommendation)
6. Go into the NIC on the computer and give it a static IP , subnet mask . Wont need a DNS assigned. ( Make sure the IP address is in the same subnet)
7. Launch TFTP server and go into config. Make sure that the source IP address is from the management device.
8. On the switch , run the following command in global conifg mode:
DELL# upgrade system tftp: A:
– address or name of remote host: 10.0.0.0
– Enter source file name: FTOS-SE-9.14-1.10.bin
*There is no need for password or username for TFTP server authentication.
* You will want to do the same commands with Partition B on the dell switch.
* If you need help with the config you can hit the “?” at any time to get a list of commands and a description of what they do.
