Appendix B - File Download and Upload Using TFTP
The BreezeNET B File Download/Upload feature simplifies the task of remotely
configuring a large number of units using TFTP protocol. By downloading the
configuration file to a PC it is possible to view all the parameters configured for
the unit, as a plain ASCII text file. It is necessary to edit the file using a simple
editor and remove certain parameters or change their values prior to uploading
the configuration to another unit. The file loading procedure can also be used for
uploading a feature license file or an updated country code file to multiple units.
When multiple configurations are being done simultaneously, which means that
the file is being uploaded to several units, it is recommended that the file will
include only the required parameters.
In the configuration file, the following three fields represent each parameter:
A symbolic string similar to the name of the parameter in the Monitor
1
program, followed by "=".
The value of the parameters, which uses the same values as the Monitor
2
program.
An optional comment. If used, the comment should start with a ";" character.
3
An unknown parameter will be ignored. A known parameter with a value that is
invalid or out of range will be set by the unit to its default value.
Use the SNMP write community string (the default is "private") to define both the
uploaded file (put) and the downloaded file (get). The file should be transferred in
ASCII mode.
Use the extension .cfg for a configuration file.
Use the extension .cmr for the Operator Defaults file.
Use the extension .fln for a Feature License file.
Use the extension .ccf for a Country Code file.
Feature license and country code files include multiple strings, where each string
is applicable only for a certain unit identified by its MAC address. When
uploading a feature license or a country code file to multiple units, each unit will
accept only the parts that are applicable for itself.
Examples:
To upload the configuration file using a DOS based TFTP Client to an RB
1
whose IP address is 206.25.63.65, enter:
tftp 206.25.63.65 put Suconf private.cfg
To download the Operator Defaults file from the same unit, enter:
2
tftp 206.25.63.65 get private.cmr Suconf
