Using the TFTP
Use the following procedure to download software release to Optimux-34 via
TFTP.
1. Verify that the *.img file is stored on the PC with the TFTP server application.
2. Define IP parameters via the Boot Manager menu.
3. Activate the TFTP server application.
4. Download the *.img file from the PC to Optimux-34.
³ To define IP parameters via the Boot Manager menu:
1. From the Boot Manager menu (
Figure
6-4
), select System Configuration to
start the configuration of the Optimux-34 IP communication parameters, as
needed for TFTP transfer.
The parameters are displayed in consecutive lines. For each parameter,
you can accept the current values by simply pressing <Enter> to continue,
or type a new value:
IP Address: used to select the IP address of Optimux-34. To change
the current value, type the desired IP address in the dotted quad
format, and then <Enter> to continue.
IP Mask: used to select the IP subnet mask of Optimux-34. To change
the current value, type the IP subnet mask address in the dotted
quad format, and then <Enter> to continue.
Default Gateway Address: when the TFTP server is located on a
different LAN, you must define the IP address of the default gateway
to be used by Optimux-34. Make sure to select an IP address within
the subnet of the assigned Optimux-34 IP address. To change the
current value, type the desired IP address in the dotted quad format,
and then <Enter> to end the configuration.
If no default gateway is needed, for example, because the TFTP
server is attached to the same LAN as Optimux-34 being loaded,
enter 0.0.0.0.
2. Press <Enter> to display the Boot menu.
3. Select Perform Reset to the board to reset Optimux-34. The new parameters
take effect only after the resetting is completed.
³ To download software from the Boot menu using TFTP:
1. From the Boot menu, select Download an Application by TFTP and then press
<Enter> to start the TFTP transfer.
Please Enter the Target File Name message is displayed.
2. Enter the name of the desired software distribution file (make sure to include
the path, when necessary). When done, press <Enter> to continue.
Please Enter the Server IP address message is displayed.
