7.
When satisfied with the software upgrade, you can repeat the previous steps to load the upgraded
software onto the Control Module in slot CM (currently the backup CM) and return its state to
primary CM.

UPGRADING FPGA CODE
On occasion, Riverstone Networks may make upgraded Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) code available for
certain line cards. To download an FPGA upgrade, use the
system linecard
command from Enable mode.
The
system linecard
command can download FPGA code from either a flash RAM card residing in one of the
active Control Module’s flash RAM slots (
slot0
or
slot1
) or from a TFTP server on the network. In either case, a
filename is specified that contains the FPGA code, and the line card that receives the upgrade is hot swapped out and
then back in for the upgraded code to take effect.
Note
No traffic is passed on the line card while the FPGA upgrade process is being
performed.
5.5.1
Upgrading FPGA Code from a TFTP Server
Follow these steps to upgrade a line card’s FPGA code using a TFTP server.
In this example, the TFTP server address is
10.50.89.88
, the path and filename of the FPGA code is
posrel/oc12_mpls_38k/oc12mr38.000
, and the line card to be upgraded is a 2-port, OC-12c, POS board in slot
6
.
1.
Load the FPGA code onto the TFTP server. Make sure that the RS can reach the server across the
network.
2.
Enter the
system linecard upgrade
command, specifying the IP address of the TFTP server,
the full path and filename of the FPGA code, and the slot number within which the line card resides.
rs# system linecard upgrade 10.50.89.88 posrel/oc12_mpls_38k/oc12mr38.000 module 6
Downloading package 'posrel/oc12_mpls_38k/oc12mr38.000' from host '10.50.89.88'
download: done
pos02_oc12_mpls.bin: 100%
pos13_oc12_mpls.bin: 100%
pos_tmac_dp.bin: 100%
About to program the module in slot 6.
This will stop any traffic on that module until the
programming is complete and the module is restarted.
Are you sure you want to do this [no]? yes
