FTP Server
Allied Telesyn has Internet access to an FTP Server for driver and Readme
files on our adapter cards and managed products. The server can be accessed
through your Internet connection as follows (note — use lower case letters):
The first thing you should do once you access the server is to read the
CONTENTS.TXT file. This is a directory of what files are available and
where they are located. All files are compressed and self-extracting; you can
open them by simply typing the file name (most self-extracting files include
multiple drivers, README and support files for specific operating systems).
A file called TECHSUPP.ORT lists the Technical Support telephone
numbers.
For example, the files as shown below are typical:
❑
ATHUB.MIB 154,469 07/14/94 | 3100 HUB MIB; RFC1368 & MIB II.
❑
DwnLds:33 Last DL: 07/14/94 | software.
❑
Omega.ZIP 165,427 08/24/92 | A stand-alone demo of the Omega
management DwnLds: 42 Last DL: 07/14/94 | software.
Once you obtain a new version of software from the Internet Server or BBS,
use TFTP (discussed next) to load the software.
TFTP
Software can also be downloaded using the Trivial File Transfer Protocol
(TFTP) and ATI’s image file. A complete discussion of TFTP procedures is
contained in Appendix A and you are referred to that information.
NOTE
Any file sent through TFTP in ASCII mode without the “ATI CONFIGURE’
string present at its very beginning, will be considered an illegal file transfer
and the session will be aborted.
