FTP the new firmware image file
The following steps are generic to most FTP programs. Use your laptop/PC/UNIX
to complete this procedure.
1. Ensure that the new firmware image file is in the same directory from which
you will launch the FTP session.
2. Type ping <source_ip_address> and press
Enter to verify a
communication link to the source board.
3. Type ftp <source_ip_address> and press Enter.
4. Log in to the source circuit pack with the same ftplogin and ftppassword
that you used in the ‘‘Set up file system on circuit pack’’ section.
■ ftplogin is any temporary login for this FTP session, for example,
denver.
■ ftppassword is any temporary login for this FTP session, for
example, broncos.
5. Type bin and press Enter.
This transfers files in binary format.
6. If you are downloading to the TN2501AP (VAL) circuit pack only, type cd /
and press
Enter.
This command moves you from the announcement directory (default for
FTP sessions) to the root directory (/) where firmware and other files are
located.
7. Type put <filename.ext> and press
Enter.
This command copies the new firmware image file to the destination
directory.
8. Type dir and press
Enter.
Verify that the new firmware image file is on the circuit pack.
9. Type quit and press
Enter.
This ends the FTP session.

1. Type list directory board <UUCSS> and press
