2 Enter "open", followed by a space and the IP address of your device.
3 Press [ENTER] when prompted for a username.
4 Enter your password as requested (the default is "1234").
5 Enter "bin" to set transfer mode to binary.
6 Use "put" to transfer files from the computer to the device, for example, "put
firmware.bin ras" transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the device
and renames it "ras". Similarly, "put config.rom rom-0" transfers the configuration file
on your computer (config.rom) to the device and renames it "rom-0". Likewise "get
rom-0 config.rom" transfers the configuration file on the device to your computer and
renames it "config.rom." See earlier in this chapter for more information on filename
conventions.

over WAN.
TFTP File Upload
The device also supports the uploading of firmware files using TFTP (Trivial File Transfer
Protocol) over LAN. Although TFTP should work over WAN as well, it is not recommended.
To use TFTP, your computer must have both telnet and TFTP clients. To transfer the firmware
and the configuration file, follow the procedure shown next.
1 Use telnet from your computer to connect to the device and log in. Because TFTP does
not have any security checks, the device records the IP address of the telnet client and
accepts TFTP requests only from this address.
2 Enter the command "sys stdio 0" to disable the management idle timeout, so the TFTP
transfer will not be interrupted. Enter "command sys stdio 5" to restore the five-minute
management idle timeout (default) when the file transfer is complete.
3 Launch the TFTP client on your computer and connect to the device. Set the transfer
mode to binary before starting data transfer.
