The online Command Line Reference guide has the best information about navigating the CLI. The following link will take you directly to the VLAN section of the guide:The commands necessary to update the firmware (opcode) are at the following link:

If you are updating the firmware from the 1.x revision, you will need to perform the following steps due to the change in block size.

  1. Copy your current configuration to a TFTP server
  2. Configure the switch to boot from the Factory_Default_Config.cfg configuration file (do not reload the switch)
  3. Delete all files except for the current opcode, diag, and factory default config
  4. Copy the new opcode from the TFTP server to the flash
  5. Configure the switch to boot from the new opcode
  6. Copy your configuration from the TFTP server
  7. Confgiure the switch to boot from the new config file
  8. Reload

If there is still not enough flash to copy your configuration file back to the switch, you may need to reboot to the new opcode using the default configuration. Once the switch is rebooted, you can set an IP address and then copy the configuration file from the TFTP server.

(huge sigh)  Thanks!  That's exactly what I've been looking for.  Why don't these docs ship with the switch?
