4Motion 174 System Manual

You can download the configuration file from an external server, and use this file

for booting up 4Motion. After downloading this file, reset the system. The system

boots up with the downloaded configuration.

Run the following command to download the configuration file from an external

server:

npu# configfile download tftp://<ip-address>/<filename>

Reset 4Motion after you run this command. The system boots up with the

downloaded configuration. To reset the system, run the following command:

npu(config)# reset

For more information about resetting 4Motion, refer to Section 4.2.2.1.

IMPORTANT

As soon as the system boots up with the downloaded configuration, the downloaded configuration

file is deleted from the NPU flash. The system continues to operate using the downloaded

configuration until the next system reset. After the system is reset, it boots up using the last saved

configuration. To ensure that the downloaded configuration is used to boot up the system after

reset, save the downloaded configuration using the following command:

npu# write

For more information about saving configuration, refer to

Section 4.3.4.1.

 The file to be downloaded is not present in the appropriate path on the TFTP server.
