Appendix B
Boot Sequence and
Downloading Software
This appendix provides a description of the IPmux-11 boot procedure via an ASCII
terminal for downloading software.
The file system can hold two compressed copies of the IPmux-11 code. One copy
is called the operating file, and the other is called the backup file. The operating
file is the default-executable IPmux-11 code. The backup file is used whenever the
operating file is absent or corrupted.
B.1 Booting IPmux-11
IPmux-11 boots up automatically. After powering up, no user intervention is
required, except when the user wants to access the file system to modify or update
the software or the IPmux-11 configuration.
Accessing the Boot Manager
The Boot Manager menu is an option that allows the user to perform basic file
transfer operations. These operations are all optional.
To access the Boot Manager menu:
• Press several times immediately after powering up the IPmux-11.
The Boot Manager menu is displayed (see Figure B-1 ).
