Administration and Management
Using TFTP via MIB Variables
You can initiate a TFTP download by setting the following repeater MIB
variables.
The firmware makes the same TFTP server request performed for the
BOOTP/TFTP download.
You can also initiate a TFTP download from the Download Firmware screen in
the VT100 interface. See the section "VT100 Management" in this chapter.
Using TFTP Over SLIP
Once a SLIP connection is made to any repeater in a Netelligent 2008/2016
repeater stack, you can use TFTP to update the Flash in any or all of the
repeaters in the stack, one at a time, as long as the repeaters are in the same
segment. To initiate the TFTP download, set the same MIB variables listed in
the previous section, "Using a TFTP Server via MIB Variables."
