Performing Diagnostics 11 - 13
If the distribute is done without a password, the load will be ignored by
remote units with a configured password. If a remote unit does not have
a password and firmware is being distributed, it only accepts the load
based on the version number and code checksum.
The type option controls whether the unit is to distribute its firmware or
configuration.
The go option starts the distribution. The following message will
appear:
Finding the other units ....
When the command is executed, the local unit will send a special broad-
cast message to all other units on the infrastructure. The message reports
that the unit has a new firmware file with its assigned version number or
a configuration file.
The remote units then decide whether to respond based on the value of
their control parameter. Any responses are displayed on the local unit.
MC3500 004096001d45 has code version 3.2a (checksum
1598)
When the local unit receives a response to its request, the remote unit is
added to a list of units to be loaded. When the response timeout period
has expired, the local unit will begin loading all remote units in parallel
using a proprietary protocol. A message similar to the one below will be
displayed.
Loading 004096001d45
Loading 00409610345f
If any remote units timeout during the load, they are removed from the
list. Once all units have completed loading, the local unit displays a
count of the successful loads. A message similar to the following will be
displayed.
Completed loading 004096001d45
Completed loading 00409610345f
Loading of 2 Ethernet Clients completed
