EEPROM.
2 Launch the NET-SNMP utility.
3 Use the snmpset command to update the firmware:
a
To set TFTP Server IP address, enter the following commands.
snmpset -v 2c -c community target_ip .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.20.50.6.0 a
server_ip
b
To set Image File Name, enter the following commands:
snmpset -v 2c -c community target_ip .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.20.50.7.0 s
image_file
c
To upgrade PMC firmware, entering the following commands:
snmpset -v 2c -c community target_ip .1.3.6.1.4.1.674.20.50.500.1.0

[root@localhost ~]# snmpset -v 2c -c private 10.32.49.67.1.3.6.1.4.1.674.20.50.6.0 a
10.32.49.64
<- Set TFTP Server IP
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.674.20.50.6.0 = IpAddress: 10.32.49.64
[root@localhost ~]# snmpset -v 2c -c private 10.32.49.67.1.3.6.1.4.1.674.20.50.7.0 s
pmc.01.A.045.01.01.0001.bin
