Booting From a Network TFTP Server
In the rare and unlikely situation where a software version upgrade fails, a network boot may
be performed as described in the following procedure.
Assume that the new T1000.Z download failed when the following command was issued:
1
Router# file download 192.168.10.1 software/router/T1000.Z
This command line is appropriate when the new upgrade T1000.Z file resides on a tftp server
host with IP address 192.168.10.1, in a directory named software/router.
Upon a download failure (and corruption or deletion of the T1000.Z file in Flash), the Model
1002 and Model 1004 router may not be able to boot.
Make note of which Ethernet interface (0 or 1) connects the system to the tftp server
2
host.
Connect a terminal or terminal emulator to the console port of the Tasman Networks
3
system using the cable supplied. Configure the terminal for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit, no parity, and XON/XOFF flow control.
Power cycle the Model 1002 and Model 1004.
4
Press and hold the Enter (Return) key while the system boots (usually 10-15 seconds).
