When Server Upgrade is specified with Local IP Address and Host IP Address referring
to the same subnet, the Gateway Address is not needed and should be 0.0.0.0. If the
Gateway Address is not 0.0.0.0, the following warning is displayed:
Refer to SOFTDOC for special considerations when the AWAN
is on the same IP subnet as the TFTP server and a gateway
is configured.
Click OK after reading the warning. To cancel the TFTP operation, click CANCEL on
the subsequent Start TFTP Update warning screen.
When the AWAN and the TFTP server are on the same subnet, a gateway is not needed,
but some bootblock versions (including 3884/3885 V3.0.2C5) will still attempt to use
the specified gateway during the TFTP operation. Some gateways will function properly
