Scroll down to File Name: and click on Download File.
2. Copy the .BIN files to CentOS on VEP4600 through WinSCP.
3. Log into CentOS shell and set permissions on the .BIN files to extract them.
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~# chmod 777 Net*
4. Extract the .BIN files to a directory, Example (rNDC):
./< Network_Firmware_xx> --extract <dir>
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~# ./Network_Firmware_40NTK_LN_19.5.12_A00.BIN --extract rNDC
Successfully
extracted
to
rNDC
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~# ./Network_Firmware_40NTK_LN_19.5.12_A00.BIN --extract rNDC
Successfully
extracted
to
rNDC
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~#
5. cd to /rNDC directory and look for these two files:
a. BootIMG.flb – uncompressed firmware
b. Nvmupdate64e – utility to load firmware
6. Run ./nvmupdate64e and it will show all Intel NICs that are in the VEP4600
Example output:
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~# cd rNDC
root@vep0046-fvqqg02:~/rNDC# ./nvmupdate64e -oem d -u -c nvmupdate.cfg -l nvmupdate.log
