set {rtr_card-addr} proxy enable {ip-addr} [mask]

set ip gateway {ip-addr}

commands.

1. Login to the Compact T1 using the Proxy IP address, (example:

2. Enter:

load [slot] tftp {ip-addr} "file-name"

where [slot] = the slot number of a router card. If no slot number is listed, the
file is loaded to the Controller.
{ip-addr} = the IP address of the host device holding the downloadable
software

"

file-name

"

= the software file name, including path, if needed. Enclosed in

quotes. Example: "c:\unit_sw\tdm4_0_z_all.mgm".

This example loads tdm4_0_z_all.mgm via tftp from the C drive and unit_sw
subdirectory. The path information must be provided.

The tftp utility provided with the downloadble software must also be running,
in the same directory
as the software file.
