LINKTIMEOUT=20

PKTTIMEOUT=2

RETRY=20

The variables have the following definitions:

• Address—Specifies the local IP address of the IPS 4270-20.

• Server—Specifies the TFTP server IP address where the application image is stored.

• Gateway—Specifies the gateway IP address used by the IPS 4270-20.

• Port—Specifies the Ethernet interface used for IPS 4270-20 management.

• VLAN—Specifies the VLAN ID number (leave as untagged).

• Image—Specifies the system image file/path name.

• Config—Unused by these platforms.

Note Not all values are required to establish network connectivity. The address, server, gateway,

and image values are required. If you are not sure of the settings needed for your local

environment, contact your system administrator.

Step 5 If necessary, assign an IP address for the local port on the IPS 4270-20.

rommon> ADDRESS=ip_address

Note Use the same IP address that is assigned to the IPS 4270-20.

Step 6 If necessary, assign the TFTP server IP address.

rommon> SERVER=ip_address

Step 7 If necessary, assign the gateway IP address.

rommon> GATEWAY=ip_address

Step 8 Verify that you have access to the TFTP server by pinging it from your local Ethernet port with one of

the following commands:

rommon> ping server_ip_address

rommon> ping server

Step 9 If necessary define the path and filename on the TFTP file server from which you are downloading the

image.

rommon> IMAGE=path/file_name

UNIX Example

rommon> IMAGE=/system_images/IPS-4270_20-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.img

Note The path is relative to the UNIX TFTP server default tftpboot directory. Images located in the

default tftpboot directory do not have any directory names or slashes in the IMAGE

specification.

Windows Example

rommon> IMAGE=\system_images\IPS-4270_20-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.1-3-E4.img
