FLASH Download Configuration Screen
Local Management Supplement 1-11
The following briefly defines each field of the Flash Download
Configuration screen:
Download Method (Selectable)
This field steps between TFTP, RUNTIME and BOOTP. If set for
BOOTP, the device sends out a BootP request to determine the IP address
of the TFTP server and the filename of the image to be downloaded. If set
for TFTP or RUNTIME, the SmartSwitch device attempts a TFTP
download based on the IP address and filename entered in the fields at the
bottom of the Flash Download Configuration screen.
Section 1.5.1 describes how to download using TFTP. Section 1.5.2
describes how to download using RUNTIME. Section 1.5.3 describes
how to download using BootP.
Reboot After Download (Modifiable when user chooses RUNTIME)
This field notifies the user that the SmartSwitch device will reboot after
the download is complete. If a RUNTIME Download is performed, this
field toggles between YES and NO. If YES is selected, the device reboots
after the download is completed. If NO is selected, the device will
continue using the existing firmware image. The device stores the new
firmware image in FLASH memory. When the device is reset, the device
will boot from FLASH memory using the new image.
TFTP Gateway IP Addr (Selectable)
This field shows the IP address of the TFTP gateway server defined in the
General Configuration screen.
Last Image Server IP (Read-only)
This field shows the IP address of the server used for the previous FLASH
Download.
Last Image File Name (Read-only)
This field shows the complete path and file name of the last image
downloaded to FLASH.
NOTE
If TFTP or RUNTIME is selected as the download method, the
following two additional fields display.
