SmartNode 4900 User Manual

4 • Getting started with the SmartNode 4900 Series

 

 

Note If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s configura- tion templates, you can manually configure the SmartNode instead of load- ing a configuration file template. In that case, refer to the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring the SmartNode device.

In this example we assume the TFTP server on the host with the IP address 172.16.1.11 and the configuration named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server.

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy tftp://172.16.1.11/SN.cfg startup-config

Download...100% 172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#

After the SmartNode has been rebooted the new startup configuration will be activated.

When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask if you want to copy the running configuration to the startup con-

figuration. Since you just downloaded a configuration file to the IMPORTANT startup configuration you must answer this question with NO.

Otherwise, the downloaded configuration will be overwritten and lost!

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#reloadRunning configuration has been changed.

Do you want to copy the 'running-config' to the 'startup-config'? Press 'yes' to store, 'no' to drop changes : no

Press 'yes' to restart, 'no' to cancel : yes The system is going down

Bootloader

The bootloader ensures that basic operations, network access, and downloads are possible in case of interrupted or corrupted application image downloads. It offers console access to the Bootloader and the capability for downloading application images (e.g. SmartWare) via the serial link of the console.

Start Bootloader

To start the Bootloader, power on the SmartNode while pressing the reset button. Open a Telnet session to the SmartNode via one of the Ethernet interfaces, or open a CLI session via the console port (if available on the SmartNode). The following prompt will be displayed:

RedBoot>

Type help to display an overview of the available commands.
