4. Store the hex image file in the /tftpboot directory as sehi.hex.
5. Edit the /etc/inetd.conf file by removing anything prior to the tftpboot
daemon (e.g., the # sign) that comments-out the line.
6. Kill the inetd process (e.g., unix% kill -HUP ‘process ID number’),
and then restart the process (e.g., unix% inetd), to enable the revised
inetd.conf file.
B.2 STANDARD LOCAL DOWNLOAD
Table B-1 provides a step-by-step procedure for downloading the
firmware image file. This section provides specific MIB OIDs, their
names, and the required setting for proper image file download. Refer to
your specific MIB walking tool documentation for instructions on how to
set MIB OID strings.
The Download OIDs for Cabletron Systems products reside in the
Cabletron Systems enterprise MIBs (group 52). The specific OIDs
necessary to perform an image file download reside in the common
download group under ctDL (Cabletron Download). The full OID string
to reach this group is: 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.5.8.1
When performing the steps in Table B-1, keep the following in mind:
• You must follow the steps in order.
• Enter the IP address of the TFTP server in standard dotted decimal
notation (e.g., 132.177.118.24).
• Enter the FULL path to the image file in the ctDLTFTPRequest OID,
including the name of the image file (e.g., c:\tftpboot\sehi.hex).
NOTE
This step requires decompression of the zipped image file. If
you do not have a UNIX unzip utility, access to a PC with
pkunzip, or a way to FTP the decompressed image to a UNIX
workstation, contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.
NOTE
You must request a process status and grep for inetd to obtain
the process ID number (refer back to step 3 in this procedure).
