Installing ERX System Software E-2
example, if the release number is x.y.z, the name of the directory is x-y-z.
To identify the software release file:
1 Access the software directory.
2 Find the files with the extension .rel.
• The software release file for the ERX-1440 system has the format
erx40_x-y-z.rel, where x.y.z is the release number.
• The software release file for all other ERX systems has the format
erx_x-y-z.rel, where x.y.z is the release number.
The procedures outlined in the following sections provide detailed
instructions for typical installations. For additional information about
commands and troubleshooting, refer to the
ERX System Basics
Configuration Guide and the ERX Command Reference Guide .
Installing Software When a Firewall Exists
When a firewall separates the ERX system from the network host, you
must FTP the software release files from the network host to the ERX
system. In this case, you must configure the FTP server on the ERX
system and ensure that FTP client software is installed on the network
host.
For this network configuration, you must install the software from the
normal operational mode of the command line interface (CLI). You can
access the CLI through either the local console or a Telnet session. If you
have not yet configured the ERX system to support Telnet, then you must
use the local console. See
Chapter 5, Accessing the ERX System , for
information on using a local console or a Telnet session.
To install the software, perform the following tasks:
1 Obtain the required information for the installation.
2 Access the Privileged Exec CLI command mode.
3
Configure IP on an interface.
4
Mount the CD on the network host.
5
Configure access to the network host.
6
Enable the FTP server on the ERX system.
7 Identify the files to transfer.
8 Transfer the files to the user space on the ERX system.
