The first command establishes a TFTP session with the
server, gets the script file from the server, and places the
file in the RAM file segment, giving it the name “sysswdl.”
The second command runs the script from the RAM
segment.
The script file should contain the same commands you
would use from the command line to erase the appropriate
file segments, download the new file(s), and reboot using
the new software. To test the script file manually to ensure
it functions, log onto an access point and type the script file
commands from the command line.
Creating Script Files
Script files are ASCII text files with a 32-byte file system
header appended. The total file size including the 32-byte
header must be less than the 4096 bytes in order to fit into
the RAM file segment.
Each script file line must be fewer than 80 characters and
be terminated by a line feed or a carriage return. Only one
command is permitted per line. Spaces on a line are
insignificant; commands and arguments may be preceded
by any number of tabs or spaces as long as the total line
length is fewer than 80 characters.
The script files can contain comments, designated by the “#”
character. All characters on a line after a “#” are ignored.
Program FHDR29K.EXE appends the file system header to
the script file. Assuming the ASCII text script file is named
SCRIPT.TXT, the following command line appends the
appropriate file header and places the output in file
SCRIPT.DAT:
