Updating Firmware MN-CDD880
4–8
• Type “dir” to list the files extracted to the temporary directory from the
downloaded archive file.
The firmware files have been successfully downloaded and are now available for transfer to
the CDD‐880.
4.4 Performing the Ethernet FTP Upload Procedure
To proceed with the firmware update procedure, assumptions are made that:
• The CDD‐880 is connected to a user‐supplied, Windows‐based PC, and:
o The PC serial port is connected to the CDD‐880 ‘CONSOLE’ port.
o The PC Ethernet port is connected to the CDD‐880 ‘ETHERNET | TRAFFIC /
MANAGEMENT | GE’ 10/100/1000 BaseT Gigabit Ethernet port with a
user‐supplied hub, switch, or direct Ethernet cable connection.
o The PC is running a terminal emulation program (for operation of the
CDD‐880 Serial Command Line Interface) and a compatible Web browser
(for operation of the CDD‐880 Web Server Interface).
• The CDD‐880 Management IP Address has been noted using the CDD‐880
Serial Command Line Interface (CLI), and the firmware has been identified
using either the CLI or the CDD‐880 Web Server Interface ‘Admin | Firmware’
page.
• The latest firmware files have been downloaded or otherwise received from
Comtech EF Data and are available on the user PC in an accessible temporary
folder.
1. Use Command‐Line to send a ‘PING’ command to confirm proper connection and
communication between the user PC and the CDD‐880:
• If the Management IP Address of the unit is still not known, type “info” at the CLI
‘CDD‐880>’ command prompt and record the displayed information. Alternately, use
Serial Remote Control or the Web Server Interface:
o Serial Remote Control – Type the “<0/IPA?” remote query (without quotes) at the
CLI CDD‐880> command prompt. The unit returns the configured Management IP
Address:
>0000/IPA=192.168.1.11/24 (default)
o CDD‐880 Web Server Interface – View
the IP Address/CIDR Mask entry on the
‘Configuration | Interface | FE Mgt’
