Running The Code You Built on the Board

There are 2 ways to take the image files you built in Section 4 and run them on the board: (1) Updating
the image file, and (2) Setting up NFS/TFTP to link to your development PC.

7.1 Method 1: Updating the Image File

(1) Run the Web Interface (Steps (1)-(9) in Section 0).

(2) Select “update device firmware” from the main screen:

(3) This brings you to the Software Updater screen. Click “Browse” and browse to the directory z3-netra-

rdk/z3-netra-RDK-(date)/images and select the image file “z3-netra-upd.img”:
