This chapter contains a set of procedures, as described in the following table:

Procedure

Description

 

 

TFTP Server Setup

Prepares the TFTP server for transferring files to and from the

 

MP.11. This procedure is used by the other procedures that transfer

 

files.

 

 

Image File Download

Upgrades the embedded software.

 

 

Configuration Backup

Saves the configuration of the MP.11.

 

 

Configuration Restore

Restores a previous configuration through configuration file

 

download.

 

 

Soft Reset to Factory

Resets the MP.11 to the factory default settings through the Web or

Default

Command Line Interface.

 

 

Hard Reset to Factory

In some cases, it may be necessary to revert to the factory default

Default

settings (for example, if you cannot access the MP.11 or you lost the

 

password for the Web Interface.

 

 

Force Reload

Completely resets the MP.11 and erases the embedded software.

 

Use this procedure only as a last resort if the MP.11 does not boot

 

and the “Hard Reset to Factory Default” procedure did not help. If

 

you perform a “Forced Reload,” you must download a new image file

 

as described in “Image File Download with the Boot Loader.”

 

 

Image File Download

If the MP.11 does not contain embedded software, or the embedded

with the Boot Loader

software is corrupt, you can use this procedure to download a new

 

image file.

 

 

TFTP SERVER SETUP

To download or upload a file, you must connect to the computer with the TFTP server through the MP.11’s Ethernet port. This can be any computer in the network or a computer connected to the MP.11 with a cross-over Ethernet cable. For information about installing the TFTP server, see “Installing Documentation and Software” on page 13.

Ensure that the upload or download directory is correctly set, the required file is present in the directory, and the TFTP server is running. The TFTP server must be running only during file upload and download. You can check the connectivity between the MP.11 and the TFTP server by pinging the MP.11 from the computer that hosts the TFTP server. The ping program should show replies from the MP.11.
