| | 24 | Flashing the CM can be done one of two ways |
| | 25 | * Flashing the CM over FTP === |
| | 26 | 1. Plug the CM3 into the network and power it on |
| | 27 | 2. Find the IP address of the CM3 (whether it be already in DHCP or randomly assigned) |
| | 28 | 3. ftp to the device |
| | 29 | {{{ |
| | 30 | ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx |
| | 31 | }}} |
| | 32 | 4. having some image "REV_X_Y_Z.rom.gz" use the 'put' command to flash the CM |
| | 33 | {{{ |
| | 34 | put REV_X_Y_Z.rom.gz xport_ar.rom.gz |
| | 35 | }}} |
| | 36 | * if the image name is already xport_ar.rom.gz then there is no need to rename it. the image must be transfered to the device under than name or it will not be recognized as new firmware. |
| | 37 | 5. The CM will not write the file and flash itself |
| | 38 | * Flashing the device over serial |
| | 39 | 1. Use a computer with "Lantronix Device Installer" installed on it. |
| | 40 | 2. Go to 'Tools'->'Advanced'->'Recover Firmware' (or simply the F8 key) |
| | 41 | 3. Configure the options, and hit OK to load the image |
| | 42 | a. Choose the COM port being used |
| | 43 | b. Select "Xport AR A1" as the device |
| | 44 | c. Make sure that the "Erase all flash" option is checked |
| | 45 | d. Enter the path of the image to be loaded |
| | 46 | [[Image(serial_recovery.jpg, 600px)]] |
| | 47 | 4. The program will prompt you to power off the device, you can just ignore this and hit next |
| | 48 | 5. The serial recovery will have started, but you must still power cycle the device before the transfer begins, either hit the reset button on the CM or just pull and reapply the power to the CM. |
