Download HTUC via TFTP
The Download H4TUC via TFTP screen (
) is utilized to perform a TFTP file transfer
from a remotely located computer/server to the H4TU-C. During TFTP transfers, the SCU
continues to act as an intermediary to receive the file data from the remote computer and then
send it to the H4TU-C unit. Before initiating a TFTP transfer from the menu screen, first enter
the TFTP remote filename that is listed on H4TU-C TFTP menu (option 1). The IP address of
the remotely located computer must also be set from the network management menu on the
SCU.
In addition, the Ethernet interface of the SCU must also be provisioned properly for TFTP
transfers. The Ethernet interface settings allow the SCU to communicate properly over the
Ethernet network in which it is installed. If settings are improperly entered, neither Telnet
sessions nor remote TFTP file transfers will be available.
Refer to the appropriate SCU Installation and Maintenance Practice for details on Ethernet
settings.
Once the H4TU-C and SCU have been provisioned properly for the TFTP file transfer, select
option 2 from the H4TU-C TFTP file transfer menu screen to initiate the TFTP file transfer from
the remotely located computer to the H4TU-C. TFTP file transfers are typically faster than Y-
Modem transfers. Once the SCU receives the file from the remote computer, the file is sent
from the SCU to the H4TU-C to be downloaded (typically less than 2 minutes).
TFTP transfers can also be initiated remotely using SNMP - totally eliminating the need to
physically be at the Total Access 3000 shelf to update the H4TU-C.
