sdvars set

starttime

Purpose

Sets the internal variable starttime. Starttime is a countdown time such
that when zero is reached, the software download process begins. You
set this variable to reflect how long into the future the access point is to
begin downloading and executing the script file from the TFTP server.
When the timer reaches 0, the access point uses the values in
serveripaddress and scriptfilename to get the script file that is to be
executed. If either serveripaddress or scriptfilename contains no value,
an error is noted in the status variable and the software download
process is terminated.

Syntax

sdvars set starttime

dd:hh:mm:ss

where dd:hh:mm:ss is how far in the future the download is to begin.

Example

To begin the script file download in 5 minutes, enter:

sdvars set starttime 00:00:05:00

Note
If you need to stop the download, you can do so by setting starttime
to 0 if it has not already been reached by the countdown. Resetting
starttime to 0 stops the timer and the download process.

sdvars set

checkpoint

Purpose

Sets the internal variable called checkpoint to a specified value. The
checkpoint variable is useful for monitoring the progress of a script file
as it is executed. You can set the checkpoint variable to a different value
after each script command and then query the checkpoint value using
SNMP to determine the progress of the download.

Syntax

sdvars set checkpoint

value

where value is a whole number.
