Upgrading firmware using the CLI through FTP/TFTP

About this task
You can upgrade firmware through FTP/TFTP using the CLI. You can perform the upgrade
remotely using a modem connection, but the upgrade files must first be downloaded to an FTP or
TFTP server on the LAN connected to the Branch Gateway.
Procedure
1. Prepare installation worksheets.
See Preparing installation worksheets
2. Set up an FTP or TFTP server on the LAN connected to the Branch Gateway.
For information about setting up a TFTP server, see

Note:
If you use an FTP server, the Branch Gateway prompts you for a username and
password when you enter a command to transfer a file.
3. Download the firmware files to the FTP or TFTP server.
