Using the CLI for Downloads
TFTP can be used to transfer system firmware to the XSR remotely. A TFTP server must be
running on the remote machine and the firmware image file must reside in the TFTP root
directory of the server when using the
copy tftp
filename
command.
Using SNMP for Downloads
You can use an SNMP manager to download or upload firmware from a remote server, and copy
a configuration image file to the XSR. Only run-time/online mode downloads are supported. This
requires setting the ctDLNetAddress and ctDLFileName objects and issuing a ctDLOnLineDownLoad
defined in the CTRON-DOWNLOAD-MIB. For more details click on the following URL:
Fault Reporting
A fault report can be uploaded through TFTP. The mechanism to upload the crash report is the
same as the one used to upload configuration file. Refer to
page 2-23 for more information.
Auto-discovery
The NetSight Gateway Management Tool can auto-discover an XSR on the network using SNMP
with the following MIB variables:
•
SysDesr
•
SysObjID

NetSight also performs auto-discovery via ping using ICMP ping.
