port for access by a utility required the device to be out-of-service. Note that it takes considerable
time to upgrade through the serial port. Future enhancements should eliminate the need for this
parameter.
WARNING: When using the –b option, the TCP numbers of 23 and 1023 may not be used on
the target devices as those indicate telnet consoles on the target devices. Any other TCP
value in the range of 1-65535 may be used. However, values lower than 1024 have been
reserved for specific functions by Internet Standards and should be avoided.

ACKUP
3.2.1 R ELEASE 18.4 E RRATA
There is no errata for the upgrade utility in this release. The release numbers have merely been kept
consistent with the other utilities.
3.2.2 R ELEASE 18.3 E RRATA
The –m4000XA operation was corrected.
3.2.3 R ELEASE 18.2 E RRATA
Support has been added for the 4000XA. The 4000XA is a software conversion to a 4000 that gives it
the personality and the feature set of the 4180. The
–m4000XA is used to specify a 4000XA device.
3.2.4 R ELEASE 18.1 E RRATA
A new option “- x ” has been added on the command line for those users using a support processor
running Solaris version 2.6 or older. These older versions of Solaris do not support the advanced
TCP features of newer versions of Solaris. The “
-x ” option excludes the need for these advanced
TCP features.
There is no errata on this release for OS variants other than Solaris.
Usage is as follows:
backup [-v][-d][-p] [-b] [-t] [-slow] [-x] –m
3.2.5 R ELEASE 17.1 E RRATA
The backup utility, in this release, becomes the sole utility for saving configuration in either a TCP or
BNS network and supercedes all previous versions, including BNS only derivatives. If the device must
be accessed through it’s serial console port because there is no TCP/IP connectivity available, then
the serial port may be connected to a BNS asynchronous module as explained in the introduction.
When providing access via a serial port, configure the port on the BNS network at 9600 baud and no
parity. For connection to a SAM or MSM port, configure the port as type
host and enable pap . For
connection to a TY port, configure the port as type console . For the argument of the –b flag used on
the command line for the utility, configure the dialstring for the serial console port. As an example,
assume the serial console of a UTM is connected to a SAM port that has a service address of
samhost . Assume the BNS network has a UMI module at IP address 192.168.0.234 and has a
configured a vport of type=rcv having an hport=50001. The command line syntax for the backup
utility would be:
