Configuring UC-7110

1.First, the NFS server must open an export directory and allow access to the IP address. Edit the file “/etc/exports” on your Linux PC, and then run the NFS daemon. The following example gives one possibility (refer to the NFS-HOWTO document at http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/server.html):

/home/usr 192.168.3.1 (rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

2.UC-7110 must run the “portmap” utility. This program is enabled by default in the “/etc/rc” file. Use the following command to mount the remote NFS server:

/>mount –t nfs <remote-ip>:<remote-export-directory> <local-directory>

Upgrading the Kernel & Root File System

UC-7110 combines the kernel and root file system into the file uc7110-1.x.x.bin, which can be downloaded from www.moxa.com. You must first download this file to your PC, and then use Console Terminal or Telnet Console to copy the file to UC-7110.

You can save this file to the UC-7110’s RAM disk, and then upgrade the kernel and root file system. In what follows, we give a step by step example.

To enable the RAM disk, use the commands given below:

/>upramdisk

/>cd ramdisk

Use the built-in FTP client to download the uc7110-1.x.x.binfile from the PC.

/ramdisk>ftp <destination PC’s IP>
