Updating the FTP Server with Upgrade Images
Use this procedure to update Xgig1000 chassis software when new versions become
available. There is no need to run this procedure when you first install the Xgig1000
chassis. Upgrades for the image software are distributed on the
Xgig System Server Soft-
ware
USB Drive.
1
Insert the
Xgig System Server Software
USB Drive into the USB port of the system
containing your FTP server.
2
Select the
Update Existing SW
option from the USB Drive. Follow the instructions
on how to retrieve the new Xgig software images from the
Xgig System Server Soft-
ware
USB Drive.
When you log into the FTP server through the Xgig Web Utility, the upgrade page
picks up the names of any kits in the
/Kits
directory on the FTP server and presents
them as options for installation.
3
Write down the IP address of the system containing the FTP server. You will need
this address to perform upgrades.
To find the address, from the Windows Start menu of the FTP server select
Run...
and type in
CMD
. From the DOS prompt, type the
IPCONFIG
command. This
command will return the IP address assigned to the system with the FTP server, such
as 10.10.254.4.
