Reloading Operational Software; Editing Boot Parameters - Lantronix SCS Reference Manual

Getting Started
When initialized, the SCS sets local authentication in the first precedence slot. For more information on
authentication and precedence, see Database Configuration on page 11-9.

2.2.3 Reloading Operational Software

The SCS stores its software in Flash ROM. The software controls the initialization process, the operation of
the SCS, and the processing of commands. The contents of Flash ROM can be updated by downloading a
new version of the operational software.
For instructions on reloading Flash ROM, refer to your Installation Guide.

2.2.4 Editing Boot Parameters

If the information that the SCS uses at boot time changes, you will need to change the SCS boot parameters.
Boot parameters include the following:
Loadhost (TCP/IP). The loadhost is the host from which the SCS operational software is downloaded
at boot time.
Backup loadhost (optional). Software is downloaded from a backup loadhost when the primary
loadhost is unavailable.
Software filename
RARP (may be enabled or disabled)
BOOTP (may be enabled or disabled)
Boot parameters are edited using Set/Define Server commands such as Set/Define Server Loadhost. All
available server commands are listed in Server Commands on page 12-111. Use the Define commands if
you want any changes to be saved after reboot.
