ftp> bin
ftp> put apc_hw05_aos_nnn.bin
(where nnn is the firmware version number)
7. When FTP confirms the transfer, type
quit to close the session.
8. After 20 seconds, repeat step 3 through step 7, using the application module file name at step 6, .
SCP. To use Secure CoPy (SCP) to upgrade firmware for the NMC, follow these steps (this procedure assumes
bootmon does not need upgrading, it is always necessary to upgrade the other two though):
1. Locate the firmware modules, see “Using the Utility for manual upgrades, primarily on Linux.”.
2. Use an SCP command line to transfer the AOS firmware module to the
NMC. The following example
uses nnn to represent the version number of the AOS module:
scp apc_hw05_aos_nnn.bin apc@158.205.6.185:apc_hw05_aos_nnn.bin
3. Use a similar SCP command line, with the name of the application module, to transfer the application
firmware module to the
NMC. (Always upgrade the AOS before the application module).
Use XMODEM to upgrade one NMC
To use XMODEM to upgrade one NMC that is not on the network, you must extract the firmware files with the
Firmware Upgrade Utility (see “To extract the firmware files:”).
To transfer the files (this procedure assumes bootmon does not need upgrading, it is always necessary to
upgrade the other two though):
1. Select a serial port at the local computer and disable any service that uses the port.
2. Connect the provided serial configuration cable (part number 940-0299) to the selected port and to the
serial port at the
NMC.
3. Run a terminal program such as HyperTerminal, and configure the selected port for 57600 bps, 8 data
bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4. Press the Reset button on the
NMC, then immediately press the Enter key twice, or until the Boot
Monitor prompt displays:
BM>
5. Type XMODEM, then press ENTER.
6. From the terminal program’s menu, select XMODEM, then select the binary AOS firmware file to
transfer using XMODEM. After the XMODEM transfer is complete, the Boot Monitor prompt returns.
(Always upgrade the AOS before the application module).
7. To install the application module, repeat step 5 and step 6. In step 6, use the application module file
name.
8. Type
reset or press the Reset button to restart the NMC.
For information about the format used for firmware modules, see “Firmware module files (Network
Management Card 2)” on page 76.
Use a USB drive to transfer and upgrade the files (AP9631 only)
Before starting the transfer, make sure the USB drive is formatted in FAT32.
1. Download the firmware upgrade files and unzip them.
2. Create a folder named apcfirm on the USB flash drive.
3. Place the extracted module files in the apcfirm directory.
4. Use a text editor to create a file named upload.rcf. (The file extension must be .rcf, not .txt for
example.)
