Chapter 3: Terminal Menu Operation and Structure
Upgrade/Start Transfer
This activator is used when the configurable items in this menu are complete.
Once started, the Express XL/XLT will prompt for erasing the flash. When the flash is erased and the upgrade transfer fails, do not turn off the unit. Retry the transfer until successful. Otherwise, if power is removed before upgrade has finished, the up- grade will have to occur from the maintenance port using XMODEM. If this happens, set a PC terminal emulation program to 9600 baud and attach to the Express XL/ XLT’s maintenance port. Press Return to display a simple terminal menu for upgrad- ing. This menu appears when the flash code has been erased or is corrupt. The menu will also appear if you power up and hold down the SELECT key for at least five sec- onds.
Upgrade/Abort Transfer
Use this activator to cancel any TFTP transfer in progress.
Upgrade/TFTP Server
Setting this to Yes allows another Express XL/XLT to upgrade its code using TFTP client. This, in effect, turns on the Express XL/XLT TFTP server func- tion and allows its code to be “cloned.” Setting to No (def) will deny any re- quest from TFTP clients.
Utilities/Exit
Write security: 5; Read security: 5
Activating this feature will exit the terminal session from the maintenance port or telnet. It is equivalent to the key combination Control L.
