3.Connect a dumb terminal (or workstation running terminal emulation software) to the ATM SmartSwitch Terminal port.
4.Copy the ATM SmartSwitch diagnostic firmware image into the appropriate location on the TFTP/Bootp server. (In this example, the firmware is located at c:\tftpboot\images\post.ima.)
5.Set up the TFTP/Bootp server tables (or equivalent file) with:
-ATM SmartSwitch MAC address
-IP address of the ATM SmartSwitch Ethernet interface
-path to the POST file on the TFTP/Bootp server
6.From the terminal connection, enter the reboot command.
