UPDATING THE FIRMWARE USING TFTP
Introduction
The ATLAS 550 supports firmware updates via the 10/100BaseT ETHERNET port using either TFTP from
a network server or the CONTROL IN or CRAFT interfaces using XMODEM. This DLP provides the steps
for a successful firmware upgrade using the 10/100 BaseT ETHERNET port and a TFTP server.
Tools and Materials Required
• A PC with Telnet client software
• A TFTP server accessible on the local network (A TFTP server is provided with the unit as part of the
ADTRAN Utilities software.)
To prevent electrical shock, do not install equipment in a wet location or during a
lightning storm.
Electronic modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. Before handling
modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic
components. Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing.
When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is
electrically grounded.
