Tsunami MP.11and MP.11a Installation and Management
Proxim recommends you switch off the MP.11/a and the computer before connecting or disconnecting
the serial RS-232C cable.
To download an image file:
1. Set up the TFTP server as described in “TFTP Server Setup” on page 103.
2. Start the terminal program (such as HyperTerminal), set the following connection properties, and
then connect:
COM port (for example COM1 or COM2, to which the MP.11 serial port is connected)
Bits per second 9600
Data bits 8
Stop bits 1
Flow control None
Parity None
3. Press the RESET button on the MP.11/a unit; the terminal program displays Power On Self Test
(POST) messages.
4.
When the Sending Traps to SNMP manager periodically message is displayed after
about 30
seconds, press the ENTER key.
5. The command prompt is displayed; enter the following commands:
set ipaddr <IP address MP.11>
set ipsubmask <subnet mask>
set ipaddrtype static
set tftpipaddr <IP address TFTP server>
set tftpfilename <image file name>
set ipgw <gateway IP address>
reboot
For example:
set ipaddr 10.0.0.12
set ipsubmask 255.255.255.0
set ipaddrtype static
set tftpipaddr 10.0.0.20
set tftpfilename image.bin
set ipgw 10.0.0.30
reboot
The MP.11/a reboots and downloads the image file. The TFTP server program should show download
activity after a few seconds. When the download is complete, the MP.11/a is ready for configuration.
To access the MP.11/a see “Chapter 3. Management Overview” on page 19. Note that the IP
configuration in normal operation differs from the IP configuration of the Boot Loader.
