The steps for downloading a new image are:
1. Choose a method of download (Xmodem, TFTP, FTP) and place the image file
on that hard drive, floppy diskette, server, etc.
When performing an Xmodem download, use the Xmodem or Xmodem CRC
protocols.
2. Bring up the menu on the Access Point via a terminal with a null modem cable
or a telnet session.
3. Choose the Download Menu off the Main Menu.
4. Choose the Download type, i.e. Download AP Image Using Xmodem, etc.
5. If you are downloading the image from an FTP or TFTP server, answer the on-
screen prompts for server IP address, username, etc. If you are downloading the
image via a terminal with a null modem cable, select the terminal program's
Transfer Menu and send the new image to the Access Point using Xmodem or
Xmodem CRC when a series of "C"s begins to appear on the bottom of the
session screen.
6. When download is successful, the Access Point will automatically reboot and
load the new image.
The RangeLAN2 725x Access Point also has the ability to update other Access Points'
software on the Ethernet segment. You can choose to Update Images of All APs or
Update Images of Selected APs. In these two cases, the Access Point will first dis-
cover other Access Points on the Ethernet segment. The difference between these two
options is the ability to exclude certain units from receiving the new image. If you know
the IP address of a specific Access Point that you would like to update, choose the
Update Image of a Specific AP option and provide the IP address when prompted. If
you do not want an Access Point to receive an updated image, disable the Accept
Downloads from Other APs parameter.
To view the status of downloads on other Access Points, see the Access Point Download
Table.
