TFTP User Interface

The contents of the kit are:

•ASC

•FRSM

•AUSM

•CESM

•FRASM

•IMATM

•MIB

TFTP, either through the control port or in-band ATM, is used for downloading firmware from a workstation into the Cisco MGX 8220 modules.

The host uses the following command sequence to download the firmware:

1.tftp dest_IP_add

dest_IP_add is the IP address of the Cisco MGX 8220 shelf receiving the downloaded firmware (via Ethernet, control port, or in-band connection).

2.tftp> bin

3.tftp> put source_file_name dest_file_name

source_file_name is the name of the firmware source file (this can be any name the user has chosen to store the firmware).

dest_file_name is the name of the file to which the firmware is to be downloaded, this must be AXIS_ASC_1_slot#.FW for downloading to a service module, for example, AXIS_ASC_1_9.FW for downloading firmware to the service module in slot 9. AXIS_ASC_1_0.FW for downloading firmware to the ASC for use in any slot 5 - 14.

AXIS_ASC_ACTIVE.FW for downloading to the active ASC.

AXIS_ASC_STANDBY.FW for downloading to the standby ASC.

If the download process is disrupted for a timeout or other such errors, restart the TFTP download process without resetting the Cisco MGX 8220 shelf.

If there is a hardware or system failure that requires resetting the card being downloaded, the firmware must be downloaded using the backup boot procedure. This is a two step procedure.

1.Download the boot firmware.

2.Download the on-line firmware.

If a backup boot procedure becomes necessary, contact technical support for assistance.

After the firmware file has been transferred completely and successfully, the module should be reset for the downloaded firmware to take effect.
