To start this action,enter Y to begin or enter N to cancel. You can also cancel the operation afterthe update has begun. For XMODEM updates, cancel the process via theterminal emulation software (consult your documentation for informationon how to do this). For TFTP updates, you can cancel the process by select-ing C ANCEL U PDATE from this field.UPDATE S TATUS Read security: 5Displays the status of the current firmware update. These fields are identi-cal to those defined earlier in Current Update Status.CONFIG T RANSFER Write security: 3; Read security: 5Used only with TFTP transfers. Sends a file containing the ATLAS 550 con-figuration to a file on a TFTP Server using the TFTP protocol through theEthernet port. C ONFIG TRANSFER also lets you save the ATLAS 550 configu-ration as a backup file, so you can use the same configuration with multipleATLAS 550 units. In addition, C ONFIG TRANSFER can retrieve a configura-tion file from a TFTP Server.To support these transfers, ADTRAN delivers a TFTP program withATLAS 550 called TFTP Server. You can configure any PC running MicrosoftWindows with this software, and store a configuration file. See TFTP ServerUtility on page 14-10 for details on how to use TFTP Server.Only one configuration transfer session (upload or download) can be activeat a time. The TCP/IP parameters are not saved or overwritten as part of anATLAS 550 unit’s transferred configuration; this way, identical configura-tions can be sent to multiple units.TRANSFERMETHODWrite security: 3; Read security: 5Displays the method used to transfer the configuration file to or from aserver. Currently, you must use TFTP.TFTP SERVERIP A DDRESSWrite security: 3; Read security: 5Specifies the IP address of the TFTP Server. Get this number from your sys-tem administrator.TFTP SERVERF ILENAMEWrite security: 3; Read security: 5Defines the name of the configuration file that you transfer to or retrievefrom the TFTP Server. The default name is Atlas550.cfg, but you can editthis name.Before using C ONFIG TRANSFER, the ATLAS 550 should have avalid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway (if required),and should be connected to an Ethernet network.
