4-32 Configuring the System
Downloading System Software via a TFTP Server
Use the TFTP Download command under the Configuration
Panel to download firmware updates into the hub. You may
upgrade firmware from a server attached to the local network,
or remotely via a serial link using TFTP over SLIP.
Specify the IP address for the TFTP server, the filename, and
the download mode. The download file should be a binary file
from Accton; otherwise the agent will not accept it. Also be
sure that you have already set the required bootup option for the
target hub under the Hub Configuration menu.
Download status is indicated by messages at the bottom of the
screen. Firmware is first loaded into a temporary buffer. If you
selected download for permanent use, it will then be transferred
to nonvolatile memory. After you download the firmware, the
agent will be reset and you will have to log back into the con-
figuration program again. The following screen shows an
example of the TFTP download menu.
