• Type “ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” without quotes (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the Target
Modem Traffic/Management IP Address).
The response should confirm whether the Target Modem is properly connected and
communicating.
3) Use Command-line to upload, via FTP, the Modem Configuration File to the Target
Modem:
• Make sure that you are in the folder containing the Modem Configuration File
(config_file) created in Sect. U.2.1.
• Type "ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" without quotes (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the Target Modem
Traffic/Management IP Address).
If you are using a CDM-625A Advanced Satellite Modem and you have
installed and enabled the optional IP Packet Processor, use of FTP is
restricted to users with Administrator privileges. You will be prompted to
type in the Admin User Name and Password (the default for both is
“comtech”) before you can continue. There are otherwise no restrictions
on FTP operations for CDM-625A Base Modem users.
• Type "put config_file config:" without quotes at the Command-line ftp> prompt, and
then press the Enter key to begin the file upload. You will observe the progress similar
to this example:
200 Port OK
150 Opening data connection
226 Upgrade in progress. Do not reboot until upgrade completes.
ftp: XXXX bytes sent in X.XXSeconds XXXXXXX.XXKbytes/sec.
ftp>
• Type "bye" to terminate the FTP session, and then close the Command-line window.
4) Re-define the Target Modem Traffic/Management IP Address.
When you upload the Modem Configuration File into the Target Modem, all configuration
parameters are “cloned” on the Target Modem – including the Source Modem defined
Traffic/Management IP Address.
To prevent any network operating conflicts, use one of the following methods to re-assign
the Traffic Modem Traffic/Management IP Address.
You will not be able to use the CDM-625A HTTP (Web Server) Interface until
you re-define the Target Modem Traffic/Management IP Address.
• Use the CDM-625 Front Panel keypad. Use the ◄ ► arrow keys to access the nested
‘Ethernet IP Address/Range’ screen (SELECT: Configuration ►IP ►Addresses
►Addr/Range):
