In server mode, the transfer is initiated from an external client. If the file downloaded
matches that configured for Software or Config then they will be used to upgrade the
software or configuration.
To use TFTP, the IP address of the remote server must be entered.
For security reasons, it is recommended to change the default settings for software and
config file names to prevent unauthorised updates.
To initiate a TFTP transfer from a windows PC, select a DOS window and then type the
command
tftp –i “WCM IP Address” put “Source Filename” “Software File Name”
eg
tftp –i 192.168.0.1 put wcm1100.812 software
Which will load a file named “wcm1100.812” onto the WCM with IP address 192.168.0.1
and load as a file called “software”
5.5.9 Ping
Ping is a simple IP/ICMP utility that enables the management connectivity to be verified.
Simply enter the IP address of the remote unit and ping will repeatedly send an ICMP
Echo request, as shown below:
