The following example shows how to have the device download a cell modem firmware image (named
cell-4g5-1.0.2.mpk) from a TFTP server running on a host (address 192.168.1.10) that is accessible from
the MCR (e.g. a locally connected host or remote host accessible via cellular interface). To start
reprogramming the cell modem firmware from the CLI, enter the following command to download the
firmware image from the TFTP server:
> request interfaces interface Cell firmware reprogram filename cell-4g5-1.0.2.mpk manual-
file-server { tftp { address 192.168.1.10 } }
