To transfer the firmware and the configuration file, follow these examples:

11.4.3 Using the FTP command from the DOS Prompt Example

Step 1. Launch the FTP client on your computer.

Step 2. Enter “open” and the IP address of your Prestige.

Step 3. Press [ENTER] when prompted for a username.

Step 4. Enter “root” and your SMT password as requested. The default is 1234.

Step 5. Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary.

Step 6. Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the Prestige, e.g., put firmware.bin ras transfers

the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the Prestige and renames it “ras”. Similarly
“put config.rom rom-0” transfers the configuration file on your computer (config.rom) to the
Prestige and renames it “rom-0”. Likewise “get rom-0 config.rom” transfers the configuration
file on the Prestige to your computer and renames it “config.rom.” See earlier in this chapter for
more information on filename conventions.

Step 7. Enter “quit” to exit the ftp prompt.

Menu 24.7.2 - System Maintenance - Upload System Configuration File

1. Launch the FTP client on your workstation.

2. Type "open" and the IP address of your system. Then type "root" and
SMT password as requested.

3. Type "put configurationfilename rom-0" where "configurationfilename"

is the name of your system configuration file on your workstation, which

will be transferred to the "rom-0" file on the system.

4. The system reboots automatically after the upload system configuration

file process is complete.
