Using the CLI to upgrade firmware

Using the CLI involves transferring the firmware image file from a workstation to the mpx110, and
then issuing image unpack to install the new firmware image, as described in the following steps:
1. At the workstation prompt, use the ftp command to go to the location on the mpx110 where
you want to transfer the firmware image. For example:
C:\fwImage>ftp 172.17.137.190
Connected to 172.17.137.190.220 (none)
FTP server (GNU inetutils 1.4.2) ready.
2. Enter your user name and password. For example:
User (172.17.137.190:(none)): ftp331 Guest login ok, type your name
as password.Password: ftp230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
3. At the ftp prompt, enter bin to set the binary mode. For example:
ftp> bin200 Type set to I.
4. Issue the put command to transfer the firmware image file from the workstation to the mpx110.
For example:
ftp> put mpx110-2_0_3_2.bin200 PORT command successful.150 Opening
BINARY mode data connection formpx110-2_0_3_2.bin.226 Transfer
complete.ftp: 4822816 bytes sent in 0.41Seconds 11878.86Kbytes/sec.
5. Enter quit.
The firmware image has been transferred to the mpx110.
6. Log in to the mpx110 as an administrator:
(none) login: guest
Password: password
The following appears:
Command Line Interface (CLI)
mpx110 #> admin start
Password: config
mpx110 (admin) #>
7. Enter the following command from the gateway:
image unpack mpx110-2_0_3_2.bin
The following prompt appears:
