LX Series Configuration Guide
Upgrading Software and ppciboot
using the Command-Line Interface
Before you upgrade the software or ppciboot, a check is
performed in Superuser mode to ensure that there is adequate
space is available to update the software (8 MB) or
ppciboot (1 MB).
L The default filename for the software is
linuxito.img. The ppciboot filename is
ppciboot.img.
L The ppciboot.img.sign and linuxito.img.sign
digital signature files are used to authenticate load
images. The sign files must be in the same directory
as the img files. Place these files on the TFTP/SFTP
server if Authenticate Image is enabled (on the
Show System Load Characteristics screen) or if you
are running in the FIPS mode of operation so the LX
unit can download them. This download occurs
automatically. See “Enabling/Disabling FIPS Security”
on page 4-22 for further information on FIPS.
Make sure you have a TFTP/SFTP server containing the software
image and the ppciboot image up and running.
L You must be in Superuser mode to download the
ppciboot from the command-line interface.
X To download ppciboot from the command-line interface
1. Type the following command and then press <Enter>:
Syntax InReach:0 >>update ppciboot[ipv6 <ipv6_address>]|
[<hostname_or_ip>] [image name <image_name>]
Example InReach:0 >>update ppciboot 1.2.3.4
L If the LX unit has a TFTP/SFTP server address
configured, you do not need to include the TFTP/SFTP
server IP Address or the TFTP/SFTP server name in
the update ppciboot command.
