Bootloader

The bootloader ensures that basic operations, network access, and downloads are possible in case of interrupted
or corrupted application image downloads. It also offers console access to the Bootloader and the capability for
downloading application images (e.g. SmartWare) via the serial link of the console.

Start Bootloader

To start the Bootloader, power on the SmartNode while pressing the reset button. Open a CLI session via the
console port (if available on the SmartNode). Don`t forget to also connect an ethernet cable to ETH port 0/0
in order for the image to be transferred.
For SmartNodes without Console port, you may open a Telnet session via the ETH port 0/0. The default IP
address on the SmartNode is 172.16.40.1 netmask 255.255.0.0.
Once connected, the following prompt will be displayed:
