Appendix B Using BOOT Loader

Uploading over tftp

In order to upload over TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol), the remote file server must be accessible from the MSPV/MSPX Ethernet Sideband port. To verify this connectivity you should ping from the file server to the IP of the MSPV/MSPX.

To upload a file over TFTP, use the system upload tftp command.

Command:

M15-155s8:/>system upload tftp <ip_address> <flashfile>

 

<destination_filename> [<gateway>]

Example:

M15-155s8:/>system upload tftp 194.31.222.23 m770ATM m770ATM_new

Parameters:

<ip_address>

The IP address of the remote TFTP

 

 

server.

 

<flashfile>

The full name of the file in flash memory.

 

<destination_filename>

The full destination file name on the

 

 

remote TFTP server. If the file is contained

 

 

in a sub-directory, the complete path and

 

 

filename must be supplied.

Note: The main purpose of upload command is to save configuration files on a source other than the M770 ATM Switch.

Rebooting the switch

It is highly recommended that you use the system reboot command to reboot the Avaya M770 instead of using the reset button. This is because the system reboot command first flushes any outstanding configuration updates to the non- volatile memory, whereas pressing the reset button may cause configuration information to be lost.

To reboot the switch, use the system reboot command. You will be prompted to confirm the operation.

Command: M15-155s8:/>system reboot

Note: When the M770 ATM Switch is rebooted, all connections to the switch will be lost.
