Installing System Images

The variables have the following definitions:

• Address—Local IP address of the IPS 4345.

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

• Gateway—Gateway IP address used by the IPS 4345.

• Port—Ethernet interface used for the IPS 4345 management.

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

• Image—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, change the interface used for the TFTP download.

Note The default interface used for TFTP downloads is Management 0/0, which corresponds to the

MGMT interface of the IPS 4345.

rommon> PORT=interface_name

Step 6 If necessary, assign an IP address for the local port on the IPS 4345.

rommon> ADDRESS=ip_address

Note Use the same IP address that is assigned to the IPS 4345.

Step 7 Assign the TFTP server IP address.

rommon> SERVER=ip_address

Step 8 If necessary, assign the gateway IP address.

rommon> GATEWAY=ip_address

Step 9 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 10 If necessary define the path and filename on the TFTP file server from which you are downloading the

image.

rommon> IMAGE=path file_name

Caution Make sure that you enter the IMAGE command in all uppercase. You can enter the other ROMMON

commands in either lower case or upper case, but the IMAGE command specifically must be all

uppercase.
