To download the new device image, you will need an Ethernet connection to the computer on which the TFTP server resides. This
can be any computer on the LAN or connected to the device with an Ethernet cable.
You must also connect the device to a computer with a standard serial cable and use a terminal client. From the terminal, enter
the CLI commands to set the IP address of the device and to download the device image.
Preparing to Download the device image
Before starting, you need to know the device IP Address, Subnet Mask, the TFTP Server IP Address, and the device image file
name. Make sure the TFTP server is running and configured to point to the default directory containing the image to be
downloaded.
