Then, the selected firmware file is downloaded (each dot represents 512 bytes):

code loaded

Finally, the AX3000 is automatically reset and the new firmware is enabled.

IMPORTANT: The AX3000 IP layer, used for the tftp protocol, does not handle

the fragmentation/defragmentation process. Therefore, if a router fragments

frames (mtu lower than 600 bytes), the AX3000 will not be able to perform the

download.

If any problems occur, see the next section.

11.5 - IN CASE OF PROBLEMS

This section discusses possible problems. The error list is not exhaustive ; if an

unlisted error occurs, please contact your AXEL distributor.

After an error, the AX3000 should be power-cycled.

11.5.1 - The bootp Stage

If an error occurs, the following message is displayed on the AX3000 monitor:

Bootp errno: xxx

- xxx is the error number.

Possible errors:

0: Ethernet board not responding.

1: no response to the bootp broadcast request (the bootp host is

unreachable or not correctly set-up).
