AlliedWare Plus Version 2.1.1 Software Release Notes
PN 613-001353 Rev A 9 Allied Telesis, Inc.
4. You are now ready to enter the new AlliedWare Plus commands to restore the previous
configuration to the switch. If you performed Phase 3 and uploaded the switch’s AT-S100
boot configuration file, print it out and use its contents as a guide to how the features and
ports were configured on the switch. Otherwise, refer to “What to Configure First” in Chapter
2 of the AT-9000 AlliedWare Plus v2.1.1 Command Line User’s Guide for suggestions on
what to configure during the initial management session.
5. To permanently save the configuration settings of the switch in the active boot configuration
file, enter the WRITE or COPY RUNNING-CONFIG STARTUP-CONFIG in the Privileged
Exec mode.
Troubleshooting the Upgrade Procedure
If you have a problem uploading or downloading files to the switch from your TFTP server, here
are a few suggestion on how to resolve it:
 Check to be sure that the TFTP server on your network is active.
 Use the SHOW IP INTERFACE BRIEF command in the View and Privileged Executive
modes to verify that the switch has an IP address. If it does not have an address, perform
Phase 2.
 Use the PING command in the Privileged Executive mode to ensure that the switch has an
active link to your TFTP server.
 Verify that you entered the upload or download command correctly. Be sure to include the
“.img” extension in the filenames of the management software files.
 If you are using a TFTP server that is case sensitive, be sure to use upper and lowercase
characters when specifying filenames in the commands.
 If you experience a problem downloading a management software file to the switch from your
TFTP server, check to be sure the file is stored in the correct directory, as required by the
server.
 If you are using a Unix TFTP server and experience a problem uploading a configuration file
from the switch, check the server’s documentation or online help for its requirements. Some
Unix TFTP servers will only upload a file if there is already a writable file of the same name in
the TFTP server directory. (The free server from Allied Telesis is not Unix based and thus
does not have this requirement.)
Differences Between AT-S100 Management Software and AlliedWare Plus
Here are a few of the differences between the operating systems:
 AT-S100 Management Software has default manager and operator accounts, while
AlliedWare Plus has just a default manager account.
 The prefix for port numbers in commands is “port1.0.” in AlliedWare Plus and “ge” in AT-S100
Management Software.
 The default setting for spanning tree is enabled in AlliedWare Plus Management Software
and disabled in AT-S100 Management Software.
