1.8.1 Retrieving All Parameters
TFTP is used for retrieval of the parameters of an ELS10-26, as
follows
:
1. Start TFTP (as described earlier). TFTP must be told the IP
address of the remote host (i.e., the ELS10-26), and the file
transfer mode (which must be “binary”).
2. Tell TFTP to retrieve (i.e., “get”) the ELS10-26’s Configuration
file (i.e., file name “config”).
3. After about ten seconds, the TFTP operation will complete.
1.8.2 Setting All Parameters
TFTP is used for bulk setting of all of the parameters of an
ELS10-26, as follows:
1. Start TFTP (as described earlier). TFTP must be told the IP
address of the remote host (i.e., the IP address of the ELS10-26),
and the file transfer mode (which must be “binary”).
2. Tell TFTP to send (i.e., “put”) the ELS10-26’s Configuration file
(i.e., file name “config”).
3. After about twenty seconds, the TFTP operation will complete.
2.
The software will re-initialize all of the ELS10-26’s parameters to the factory
specified defaults.
