One protocol for download, tftp.
'.' = clear field; '-' = go to previous field; ^D = quit
boot device : eth0 Boot device name. Cannot be changed.
file name : wx5002.bin The download file name shall be
consistentwith the real file name, and you
need to designate the download path in TFTP
settings.
inet on ethernet (e) : 192.168.0.124 Set to be in the same network with TFTP
server. It has nothing to do with port IP
address of the AC.
host inet (h) : 192.168.0.179 IP address of TFTP server.
gateway inet (g) : 192.168.0.1 Gateway IP address. No need to set.

When configuring a parameter, you can enter a new value directly, or press
Enter
to accept the
default coming after the colon. Type the symbol “.” to clear the input, “-” to return to the previous
parameter, and “^D” (namely, <Ctrl+D>) to quit from the parameter configuration interface.

WX5002 AC can use the 10/100 BASE-TX out-of-band management interface only.
Upgrading an Application Program
Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), a protocol in TCP/IP protocol suite, is used for trivial file transfer
between client and server. It provides not-so-complex and low-cost file transfer services. TFTP provides
unreliable data transfer services over UDP and does not provide any access authorization and
authentication mechanism. It employs timeout and retransmission to guarantee the successful delivery
of data. The TFTP software is much smaller than the FTP software in size.
Step 1: Set up an upgrade environment.
Figure 5-7
Set up a TFTP upgrade environment
Connect the 10/100 BASE-TX out-of-band management interface to a PC with a crossover cable. Start
the TFTP server on the PC, and set the TFTP server path to the directory of the application program.
