Upgrading and backing up Cisco 3850 IOS software

We have a newly purchased switch which needs to have its current firmware backed up and also to upgrade the firmware.

Before I plug in the RJ45, I realized that we don’t have the.copper SFP.. I have not tried the management port yet.

Am I right to say that other than adding an SFP,, I tried to insert a usb flash drive but it says removed usbflash0.

What do I need to do to the USB or what other options to backup the IOS software and upgrade its iOS software?

Hi!

The management port was able to detect the bin file but it was unable to extract it which result in failure.

But I used the usb method to upgrade the IOS software which worked successfully.
