Telnet Procedures

EMOTE OFTWARE P OWNLOADING
This method allows you to telnet into the target AccessBuilder's command
line user interface as a superuser and issue the "load" command to perform
the desired transfer function. Although you telnet into the AccessBuilder,
the load command uses TFTP as the transfer mechanism (requires a TFTP
server to be available for either the upload or download functions). The IP
address of the TFTP server and the target AccessBuilder must be known, as
well as the SuperUser password for the AccessBuilder.

The header file name selected dictates the action that occurs (direction of
flow). Refer to Table B-1 for filenames.
Be sure you have set up a TFTP server. Refer to Table B-1 for filenames.
CAUTION: Whenever an image or configuration file download transfer
occurs, the remote AccessBuilder suspends any user session in progress and
automatically resets upon completion, thus disconnecting any active users.
For this reason, maintenance downloads should be announced to the
system users well in advance of the event, and scheduled at a time that
minimizes network disruption.
1 Copy the files absrvr.cde, absrvr.hd0, absrvr.hd1, and absrvr.hd2 on the
AccessBuilder distribution diskette to the TFTP host's TFTP directory.
