boots the software from the flash memory.
Software updates can be performed via a TFTP server. This presupposes
that a TFTP server has been installed in the connected network and that it is
active.
Note: An alternative to the TFTP update is the HTTP update. The HTTP
update saves you having to configure the TFTP server.
The device requires the following information to be able to perform a software
update from the TFTP server:

its own IP address (entered permanently),
 the IP address of the TFTP server or of the gateway to the TFTP server,
 the path in which the operating system of the TFTP server is kept
The file transfer between the device and the TFTP server is performed via

more computers.
The preparation of the TFTP server for the device software involves the
following steps:
