Chapter 7. Procedures
This chapter contains a set of procedures, as described in the following table:
Procedure Description
TFTP Server Setup Prepares the TFTP server for transferring files to and from the MP.11/a.
This procedure is used by the other procedures that transfer files.
Image File Download Upgrades the embedded software.
Configuration Backup Saves the configuration of the MP.11/a.
Configuration Restore Restores a previous configuration through configuration file download.
Soft Reset to Factory
Default
Resets the MP.11/a to the factory default settings through the Web or
Command Line Interface.
Hard Reset to Factory
Default
In some cases, it may be necessary to revert to the factory default
settings (for example, if you cannot access the MP.11/a or you lost the
password for the Web Interface.
Force Reload Completely resets the MP.11/a and erases the embedded software.
Use this procedure only as a last resort if the MP.11/a does not boot
and the “Hard Reset to Factory Default” procedure did not help. If you
perform a “Forced Reload,” you must download a new image file as
described in “Image File Download with the Boot Loader.”
Image File Download
with the Boot Loader
If the MP.11/a does not contain embedded software, or the embedded
software is corrupt, you can use this procedure to download a new
image file.
TFTP SERVER SETUP
To download or upload a file, you must connect to the computer with the TFTP server through the
MP.11/a’s Ethernet port. This can be any computer in the network or a computer connected to the
MP.11/a with a cross-over Ethernet cable. For information about installing the TFTP server, see
“Installing Documentation and Software” on page 15.
Ensure that the upload or download directory is correctly set, the required file is present in the directory,
and the TFTP server is running. The TFTP server must be running only during file upload and
download. You can check the connectivity between the MP.11/a and the TFTP server by pinging the
MP.11/a from the computer that hosts the TFTP server. The ping program should show replies from the
MP.11/a.
