Specify this option if you are uploading a text-based configuration file to the IOLAN from a TFTP server.

factory-default-config

Specifies the configuration file that you are going to load from a TFTP server to the IOLAN that will act as the factory default configuration. See the User Guide for directions on how to revert back to the original factory default configuration, if required.

firmware

Specifies that you are going to download a new firmware file to the IOLAN. configuration

Specifies that you are going to download a new configuration file to the IOLAN. customlang

Specifies that you are going to download a custom language file to the IOLAN. term1term2term3

You can create and download up to three custom terminal definitions to the IOLAN. customapp-file

You can download multiple SDK program executables and ancillary files using this command by running the command multiple times to download multiple files. Use the shell CLI command as described in the SDK Programmer’s Guide to manage the files that you download.

serialt-buf

Specifies that you are going to download the contents of a serial trace buffer to the

IOLAN.

<hostname/ip_address>
