Note that, starting at the end of the file name and working backwards, the first
character not valid in file names delimits a valid file name for the router. If the
slash at the beginning of the path is omitted in this command, the LOAD
command adds it. The following are examples of valid file names for method
HTTP:
/path/filename.ext
path/filename.ext
The HTTPPROXY parameter specifies the proxy server used to handle HTTP
requests. Either the IP address or the fully qualified domain name of the proxy
server may be specified. If a domain name is specified, the router will perform
a DNS lookup to resolve the name. If DEFAULT is specified, this parameter is
set to the factory default, which has no value set for HTTPPROXY, clearing any
value previously set as default.
The METHOD parameter specifies the method to use when downloading the
file. If HTTP is specified, HTTP is used to download the file. The options WEB
and WWW are synonyms for HTTP. If TFTP is specified, TFTP is used to
download the file. If ZMODEM is specified, the ZMODEM protocol is used to
download the file. If ZMODEM is specified, the PORT parameter must be
specified, unless it has been set with the SET LOADER command on page 1-83.
If NONE is specified, only text files can be downloaded and all input received
via the port will be directed to the specified file on the router’s file subsystem.
The file transfer is terminated by the first control character received that is not a
CR or LF character. The FILE parameter is not valid when METHOD is set to
ZMODEM. The PORT parameter is not valid when METHOD is set to HTTP,
WEB, WWW, TFTP or NONE. If DEFAULT is specified, this parameter is set to
the factory default, which is TFTP.
The PORT parameter specifies the asynchronous port via which the file will be
downloaded, when the METHOD parameter is set to ZMODEM or NONE. If
METHOD is set to ZMODEM or NONE, the PORT parameter is required
unless it has been set with the SET LOADER command on page 1-83. If
DEFAULT is specified, this parameter is set to the factory default, which is no
PORT set, clearing any value previously set as default.
The PROXYPORT parameter specifies the port on a proxy server. The
PROXYPORT parameter is only valid if METHOD is HTTP and HTTPPROXY
is specified. If DEFAULT is specified, this parameter is set to the factory
default, which is 80.
The SERVER parameter specifies the IP address or the host name (a fully
qualified domain name) of the TFTP server or HTTP server from which the file
is loaded. If a host name is specified, a DNS lookup is used to translate this to
an IP address. See SET IP NAMESERVER command on page 8-118 of Chapter 8,
Internet Protocol (IP) for more information about setting up name servers. The
PING command on page 8-103 of Chapter 8, Internet Protocol (IP) can be used to
verify that the router can communicate with the server via IP. The SERVER
parameter is not used when METHOD is set to ZMODEM or NONE. The
following are examples of valid server names when METHOD is set to HTTP:
host.company.com
192.168.3.4
If DEFAULT is specified, this parameter is set to the factory default, which has
no value set for SERVER, clearing any value previously set as default.
