1. If you’re in Telnet, exit from the Craft screens until the pSH+>

the Trap Host IP address as the SLIP Peer IP address.
Firmware Upgrade Procedures
Firmware upgrades performed using an SCC 2120 may be divided
into two categories: upgrades of the SCC module’s own firmware,
and upgrades in which the SCC broadcasts new firmware to the TAC
2110 module(s) in the node.
Upgrading SCC
Modules
The two procedures below are used to upgrade the firmware of an
SCC 2120. In each case you must be running from the opposite
flashbank. To upgrade flashbank A, you must be running from
flashbank B. To upgrade flashbank B, you must be running from
flashbank A.
To use these
procedures you
will need
•
A file containing a new revision of SCC firmware.
•
An Ethernet or SLIP connection to the SCC 2120 (for
performing FTP file transfers).
•
a Telnet application or a direct terminal connection to the SCC
Craft interface.
•
An FTP server application.
NOTE: Most common FTP programs are CLIENTS, not SERVERS. Be
sure you have an FTP server program. Such programs, often
distributed as shareware, may be found on World Wide Web
download sites.
To use these
procedures you
will need to know
•
Basic TCP/IP terminology.
•
How to use FTP.
•
How to use the specific FTP server program you have selected.
•
The IP address of the FTP server.
•
The specific path and filename to the new SCC firmware file.
Before beginning
this upgrade
1. If need be, install the FTP server program which you have
selected.
