6 Configure the Operation Modes
This example lists two other NetCom configured for Ad-Hoc communication on channel 7. Both do
not use encryption. There is also an Access Point (listed as
Managed
), of course in Infrastructure-
mode. To connect to this AP the NetCom Plus with WLAN option must use encryption.
In Telnet the display is updated automatically when some information changes. Most noticeably
this will be the
Act
-ivity sign.

Figure 92: Firmware Upload
Via Telnet the option to upgrade the Firmware of NetCom
+
is different. The upload of the data
is either done via the current channel (i.e. the serial or Telnet connection). Or independently
via a separate TCP/IP connection. The
Update Port
parameter defines this second connection,
the NetCom
+
waits for a TCP connection on this port. The Firmware is sent coded in base64
(a special text format), via very simple programs like a second Telnet session, or similar tools.
Terminal software by serial configuration may just use the “Send Textfile” function.
While uploading the file it is checked by NetCom
+
. If it is a valid content, it is stored in the Flash
Memory. When the upload is finished, NetCom
+
will Reboot.
