Configuring UC-7110

4-10

1. First, the NFS server must open an export directory and allow access to the IP address. Edit

the file “/etc/exports” on your Linux PC, and then run the NFS daemon. The following
example gives one possibility (refer to the NFS-HOWTO document at

http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/server.html

):


/home/usr 192.168.3.1 (rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash)

2. UC-7110 must run the “portmap” utility. This program is enabled by default in the “/etc/rc”

file. Use the following command to mount the remote NFS server:

/>mount –t nfs <remote-ip>:<remote-export-directory>

<local-directory>

Upgrading the Kernel & Root File System

UC-7110 combines the kernel and root file system into the file uc7110-1.x.x.bin, which can be
downloaded from

www.moxa.com

. You must first download this file to your PC, and then use

Console Terminal or Telnet Console to copy the file to UC-7110.

You can save this file to the UC-7110’s RAM disk, and then upgrade the kernel and root file
system. In what follows, we give a step by step example.

To enable the RAM disk, use the commands given below:

/>upramdisk

/>cd ramdisk

Use the built-in FTP client to download the uc7110-1.x.x.bin file from the PC.
/ramdisk>ftp <destination PC’s IP>
