9.3. Error - Bootloader Telnet Command-Line Interface (CLI)

If there is a problem with a TFTP transfer (can’t find server, can’t find filename,
etc.) the three LEDs will light as described above and a Telnet server is started
(with static IP 192.168.26.4). The user can then use any standard Telnet terminal
program to access this server at 192.168.26.4. In order to see what is typed on the
user side, local echo must be enabled in

the Telnet terminal program; it’s not

necessary but makes the process a little easier. After initiating this Telnet session,
the user should see the following screen:
