About your questions.

Yes, I can ping from the switch to the server.

I cant save my config file to the server neither, it said:
"Uploading test.cfg to 192.168.1.10 ... failed!
Error: Network is unreachable"

Switch model X440-48p and the exos version that Im trying to download is summitX-15.6.2.12.xos

Thank you for your time!

Hi!

First of all - you have to see ping between switch and tftp-server.
Also you can try to upgrade image through BootRom.
1) Go to BootRom
2) Connect PC with working TFTP-server to management port :
configip ipaddress gateway
{NOTE: gateway ipaddress is TFTP server}
3) Input: showip (or ping PC)
4) Input in CLI: download image
{NOTE: ipaddress - TFTP server; filename - XOS image}
5) Apply to default reset.

In this case you'l see - is tftp-server working fine.

Or other case try to reopen tftpd32.

Thank you!
