Figure 72 Restore Using FTP Session Example
Refer to Section 19.1.2 on page 180 to read about configurations that disallow
TFTP and FTP over WAN.
FTP and TFTP Firmware and Configuration File Uploads
These examples show you how to upload firmware and configuration files.
Do not interrupt the file transfer process as this may
PERMANENTLY DAMAGE your device.
FTP is the preferred method for uploading the firmware and configuration. To use
this feature, your computer must have an FTP client. The following sections give
examples of how to upload the firmware and the configuration files.
FTP File Upload Command from the DOS Prompt Example
1 Launch the FTP client on your computer.
2 Enter “open”, followed by a space and the IP address of your device.
3 Press [ENTER] when prompted for a username.
4 Enter your password as requested (the default is “1234”).
5 Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary.
6 Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the device, for example, “put
firmware.bin ras” transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the
device and renames it “ras”. Similarly, “put config.rom rom-0” transfers the
configuration file on your computer (config.rom) to the device and renames it
“rom-0”. Likewise “get rom-0 config.rom” transfers the configuration file on the
device to your computer and renames it “config.rom.” See earlier in this chapter
for more information on filename conventions.
7 Enter “quit” to exit the ftp prompt.
ftp> put config.rom rom-0
200 Port command okay
150 Opening data connection for STOR rom-0
226 File received OK
221 Goodbye for writing flash
