Uploading the Web Page and Parameter List
The Host Device Files (.HTML, default parameter List….) can be uploaded to the MultiConnect IP
using TFTP CLIENT.
It is possible to upload these files in two different ways. In either case, file naming and file size
conventions described previously must be followed.
• Compressed and Zipped formats (tar.gz) or
• Uncompressed individual files.
Uploading Compressed and Zipped Files (http.tar.gz)
In order to load files in the compressed (http.tar.gz) format, the following directory structure has to
be strictly followed.
http/
HTML/
http-s0.HTML
http-host-param
http-*.HTML
cgi-bin/
cgi-* (Supports only Shell scripts)
• Place the HTML files and the default serial device parameter list in the /http/HTML
directory. All the HTML file-names should be prefixed with http-.
• Place the CGI scripts in the /http/cgi-bin directory. All the CGI scripts should be prefixed
with cgi-.
• Create an http.tar.gz from the source directory (http/). This file should be in the GZIP
format only.
• Upload http.tar.gz using any TFTP Client with binary mode set.
• Use the following commands to upload http.tar.gz to the MultiConnect IP.
[root@admin /root]# tftp 192.168.2.1 (Address of the MultiConnect IP)
tftp>trace
tftp>binary
tftp>verbose
tftp>put http.tar.gz
tftp>quit
Upload Uncompressed Files Individually
• Use TFTP client with binary mode set.
• Upload HTML files, the default serial device parameter list, and the CGI bin files
individually using the following commands:

tftp>verbose
tftp>binary
tftp>trace
tftp>put http-host-param
tftp>put http-s0.HTML.
