Allied Telesis AR400 Series Router - Manual (Page 31)

Getting Started with the Graphical User Interface (GUI) 31
Software Release 2.5.2
C613-02034-00 REV A
Load the GUI resource file from your TFTP server to the router, using the
command:
LOAD FILE=filename.rsc SERVER=server
where:
• filename is the name of the GUI resource file, as shown on the support
site for your router. Do not rename the file.
• server is the IP address of the TFTP server the file is loaded from.
When the router has loaded the file into its RAM, it displays the message
“File transfer successfully completed”. It then writes the file to FLASH
memory. Wait approximately 30 seconds after the message before entering
any commands that refer to this file.
2. Install the new file as the preferred GUI
Set the new GUI resource file as the preferred resource file, using the
command:
SET INSTALL=preferred GUI=filename.rsc
You can use the GUI to load the new resource file onto the router
(Management > Software > Upgrade), but you need to use the CLI to
install the new file.
Check that the new GUI resource file is valid for your device, using the
command:
SHOW GUI
3. If required, delete the old GUI resource file
If you do not want to keep the previous GUI resource file, delete it, using
the command:
DELETE FILE=previous-gui.rsc
where:
• previous-gui.rsc is the name of the GUI resource file that you are
replacing.
Wait until FLASH compaction has finished. This will take several minutes.
Do not interrupt the router’s power supply during FLASH compaction, under
any circumstances.
If required, you can store more than one GUI resource file on the router at a
time. If you have multiple valid resource files stored on the router, use the SET
INSTALL command to change the resource file you use. You cannot delete the
resource file that the router is currently set to use unless you first disable the
GUI.
