Loading System Software on the LMM+ 7
Loading 8.2.3 software into flash memory takes approximately 10 to 15
minutes to complete, depending on your network load.
To load the new software:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
system softwareUpdate
The system prompts you for the Host IP address, Install filename, User name,
and Password. Press Return or Enter to accept the default values, which are
shown in brackets. The Password field does not display what you enter.
2 Next to
Host IP address, enter the IP address of the host machine (such
as a Sun workstation or PC) from which you are installing the software.
In the example in step 5, the IP address of the host is
192.9.200.96
3 Next to Install file pathname, enter the complete path and filename.
For MS-DOS system syntax, you must precede the full path with a slash ( / ).
For example, if you are loading software from an MS-DOS host, enter the
following command at the
Install file pathname prompt:
/c:\3com\lp6000R\image\lp6000R
4 Next to User name, enter your user name.
5 Next to
Password, enter your password. You must enter a value for this
field, although the field does not display what you enter.
This software installation sample shows the prompts on a UNIX host:
Host IP address [192.9.200.14]: 192.9.200.96
Install file pathname [/usr/lp6000R/lp6000R]:
User name: ronnyk
