A.1.2 Check Self-Test (Automatically Performed)

During a system boot, the ATM adapter automatically performs a self-test of the hardware, running a low-level diagnostic which checks memory read/write capability. Upon completion of the self-test, a message is printed to the console of the workstation indicating whether or not the hardware failed.

If the self-test is successful, proceed to the instructions regarding the ﬁrmware download as described in the next subsection.

If the self-test fails, reseat the board by performing the following steps to ensure that failure was not due to improper insertion of the board:

1.Halt the system, being sure to follow the procedures outlined in Chapter 2 of the User’s Manual for the adapter.

2.Open the computer as shown in Chapter 2 of the User’s Manual for the adapter, and reseat the board.

3.Reboot the system.

If the board still fails after a reseat, then it should be returned for repair. Call Cabletron Systems’ Technical Support for further assistance.

A.1.3 Firmware Download (Automatically Performed)

Before operating as an ATM interface, the ﬁrmware is automatically down- loaded from the system RAM to the onboard i960 processor during host sys- tem boot. A message similar to: “XXX-200 initializing...” is displayed on the console, indicating that the board is being initialized. When the initialization is complete, success is indicated with the message “done” and failure is indi- cated with the message “failed”.

If the download is successful, check to see if the hardware has been detected by the driver as described in the next subsection.

If the ﬁrmware failed to download, then there is most likely a hardware prob- lem. Call Cabletron Systems’ Technical Support for further assistance.

For example, an OC-3c network module that is removed from slot A of the old switch fabric must be installed in slot A of the new switch fabric. Therefore, it is recommended that you label all network connections and network modules before removing them Hardware Maintenance Procedures 5-17CAUTION Make sure the replacement board is properly aligned in the slot in the next step Hardware Maintenance Procedures 5-18 Software Upgrade Instructions CHAPTER6.1 Obtaining the Software Upgrade File via Diskette Software Upgrade Instructionstar -xvf device eject deviceforeextract device Software Upgrade Instructions6.2 Performing the Software Upgrade mkdir /tftpbootmv ﬁlename /tftpboot operation upgrade ?operation upgrade 169.144.3.54ASX-200BX4.0.01.3 operation upgrade 169.144.3.54asx-scp4.0.01.3Software Upgrade Instructions Software Upgrade Instructions Reboot the switchy? y6.3 Changing between Multiple Versions of Software Software Upgrade Instructionslocalhostoperation reboot Software Upgrade InstructionsAre you sure you want to reboot this switch n? y 6.4 Using bootp to Download Software to the Switch 6.4.2 Setting Up Your bootp Server6.4.1 Overview Software Upgrade Instructions6-10 6.4.3 Adding an Entry for Your Switch in the bootptab FileSoftware Upgrade Instructions Software Upgrade Instructions 6-11The variables in the previous example are deﬁned as follows 6-12 6.4.4 Setting Up a tftpboot ServerSoftware Upgrade Instructions A.1 Adapter Hardware Troubleshooting TroubleshootingAPPENDIX A Troubleshooting Figure A.1 -
