Note The steps are similar if you are using a Macintosh or a UNIX workstation.

Set Up a TFTP Application on the PC

Step 1 Install the TFTP application on the PC.

Note You can use any TFTP or rcp application available from independent software

vendors. A number of TFTP programs are also available as shareware from public sources

on the World Wide Web. If you are using Microsoft Windows 95, you can also download

a TFTP application (as zipped files) from the Cisco web site at

http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-other.shtml.

Step 2 Launch the TFTP application. You commonly do this by double-clicking the application

icon or its filename.

Step 3 Set your TFTP server root directory:

• Choose Server Root Directory from the Options menu.

• Choose c:\tftpboot from the Drives and [...] list boxes.

• Click OK.

Caution If you do not select the c:\tftpboot directory as your TFTP server directory, you will not be able to

perform the copy procedure. This also applies if you are using RCP on your system.

Connect your PC and the Access Server

Step 1 Use straight-through cables to connect the PC and access server via a 10BaseT hub, as

shown in Figure A-3. Also note that both Ethernet ports must have the same baseband.
