netload
netload
The netload command downloads the specified file through the Ethernet port to the
default boot address.
Format
netload [file [address]]
Parameters
file
Specifies a legal file name to be downloaded to the motherboard. The default is to
load the file specified in the bootptab file.
address
Specifies the address at which to download the file. The default is the boot address.
Description
The netload command uses BOOTP to download the specified file through the
Ethernet port. The Ethernet port is selected using the edevice command. The
program is loaded into the default boot address. You can set up or change the boot
address with the bootadr command. The program can then be executed with the go
or jtopal command.
A default file and directory path may be defined in the bootptab file. See
Section 2.3.4.2 for more information.
If you specify an address, this address becomes the default boot address. This value,
however, is not set in battery-backed RAM.
