FTP is the preferred method for uploading a firmware file. To use this feature, your computer must have an FTP client.
To upload a firmware file, follow the next example.
FTP Upload Command from the DOS Prompt Example
Step 1. Launch the FTP client on your computer.
Step 2. Enter “open”, followed by a space and the IP address of your Prestige. Step 3. Press [ENTER] when prompted for a username.
Step 4. Enter your password as requested (the default is 1234). Step 5. Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary.
Step 6. Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the Prestige, for example, “put firmware.bin ras” transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the Prestige and renames it “ras”.
Step 7. Enter “quit” to exit the ftp prompt.
