The following briefly explains each field of the Flash Download screen:
Download Method (Selectable)
This field steps to BOOTP, TFTP, and RUNTIME. If set for BootP, the
device sends out a BootP request to determine the IP address of the TFTP
server and the file name of the image to be downloaded. If set for TFTP or
RUNTIME, the 2E43-51 attempts a TFTP download based on the IP
address and file name entered in the fields at the bottom of the Flash
Download screen. Section 5.15.1 describes how to download using BootP.
Section 5.15.2 describes how to download using TFTP. Section 5.15.3
describes how to download using Runtime.
Reboot After Download (Modifiable only when RUNTIME is chosen)
This field notifies the user that the 2E43-51 will reboot after the download
is complete. If a Runtime Download is performed, this field toggles
between YES and NO. If YES is selected, the device reboots after the
download is completed. If NO is selected, the device continues using the
existing firmware image and stores the new firmware image in FLASH
memory. When the device is reset or during the next power-up, the device
will boot from FLASH memory using the new image.
TFTP Gateway IP Addr (Selectable)
This field shows the IP address of the TFTP gateway server defined in the
General Configuration screen in Section 5.7.4, Setting the TFTP
Gateway IP Address.
Last Image Server IP (Read-only)
This field shows the IP address of the server used for the previous FLASH
Download.
Last Image File Name (Read-only)
This field shows the complete path and file name of the last image
downloaded to FLASH.
