3.6.2.1Updating MPCBL0001 Firmware

To update the MPCBL0001 firmware for the Intel NetStructure® MPCBL0001 SBC, execute the following commands.

1.Copy the update utility (fwpiaupd) and the firmware image file into the same directory in the RedHat Linux host. Note: If using ftp for file transfer, use binary mode to transfer files. The firmware image file or the utility file may get corrupted if binary mode is not used.

2./fwpiaupd -ip [IPAddress] -user root -pwd cmmrootpass -ni -b -u -slot [slot#] filename.hex.

Note: The dot before / character in the command is required.

•IPAddress is the IP address of the CMM.

•At default, user is root. Password is cmmrootpass.

•slot# is slot 1 to 14 in the MPCHC0001 chassis.

•filename.hex is the firmware file.

Note: This "fwpiaupd" utility can only be supported on the Red Hat* Linux* 8.0 Platform. The Intel NetStructure® MPCMM0001 Chassis Management Module is needed for this remote update.

The utility and upgraded firmware are part of the IPMC Firmware release package. It can be downloaded from the Intel web site at http://www.intel.com/design/network/products/cbp/atca/ index.htm.
