6.1. Upgrading Application Firmware Example
An example p session is shown below:
e Application firmware is upgraded using
image.bin
. Transfer must always be in binary mode
set by the
bin
command. Not using binary mode will corrupt the firmware and make the unit
unusable. Notice the syntax of the p
put
command. When
put
is entered without arguments, it
first prompts for the
Local file
which is the new firmware, and second prompts for the
Remote file
which must always be
image.bin
, when upgrading the application firmware. To restate, the
Remote
file
for upgrading the application firmware must always be
image.bin
. If
rom.bin
is used it will
overwrite the bootloader and make the unit inoperable.

At this point the GRouter will continue writing flash for a minute or two and then reboot on its
own. Once it has finished rebooting the status page will display the new firmware version.
