Copy the Configuration Files to the FTP Server

Telnet to the XLi or open a terminal session to it over the serial port.

Using the command line, enter the commands below. Replace <IP Address> with that of the

workstation/FTP Server. Leave <subdir> blank - the FTP server will save the files in anonymous’s

home directory.

Note: See “Using the Command Line Interface” on page 26 if you need instructions for connecting to the

command line interface

To get the NTP config files, type:

>f100 config ntp get host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

To get the SNMP config file, type:

>f100 config snmp get host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

To get the SNMP and NTP config files, type:

>f100 config ntp snmp get host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

Here’s an example of a successful SNMP and NTP config file transfer:

>f100 config ntp snmp get host:192.168.0.1 dir:

Host config ip 192.168.0.1 already configured

Source file /config/snmp.conf bytes read: 1275

Dest file snmp.conf bytes written: 1275

Source file /etc/ntp.conf bytes read: 1166

Dest file ntp.conf bytes written: 1166

Source file /etc/ntp.keys bytes read: 44

Dest file ntp.keys bytes written: 44

Configuration files transferred successfully!

If you get “Error: Can’t write file” when you enter the get command, verify the following FTP

server items:

• FTP server is running.

• Anonymous has a home directory.

• The home directory for Anonymous has read

, write, and delete enabled (make sure to apply

changes).

Edit the Configuration Files

In Windows, edit the configuration files using a text editor such as Notepad or Wordpad. For more

information, see “D: Network Time Protocol (NTP)” on page 283
