3.Type X to update the entire system (you must use TFTP). Respond by typing Y to continue.

4.The IAD displays the following:

**** Download using TFTP ****

Enter ip address of TFTP server. (98.121.1.167) ->

5. Type the IP address of the TFTP Server and press Enter.

As file transfer progresses, the IAD reports the status of each file being copied. Two files—acos.bin and boot.bin—will only be copied if they match the platform, to guard against loading incorrect system files onto an IAD.

NOTE If the IAD cannot locate the first file to download (typically release.dat), the update will fail. Make sure you have assigned a valid IP address and subnet mask, and you’re on the same subnet as the TFTP Server. Use the Ping command to successfully ping the IAD and try again.

Upon completion, the IAD reports the success or failure of these files specifically, and then reports the completion of file transfer and resets.

Verifying the Upgrade

To verify that the files downloaded successfully, observe the boot sequence. The IAD displays the software version in the banner:
