To perform maintenance activities, choose from one of the following tasks:

•

•

download <protocol> 
<server> <filename>

Downloads a new software package from the specified 
file exchange server, in order to perform a minor or 
major upgrade. You are prompted to provide the 
following parameters if you do not specify them in the 
command:

•

 is the import protocol. Options are 

tftp|ftp|scp|sftp.

 The default is 

tftp

.

•

 is the host name or IP address of the file 

exchange server.

•

 is the name of the software upgrade 

package. Software upgrade packages typically 
have the .pkg file name extension.

•

for FTP, SCP, and SFTP, user name and password

If you include a directory path and file name 
(separated by a forward slash (/)) on the same line 
as the FTP server host name or IP address when 
you run the command, make sure you put the 
combined directory path and file name string within 
double quotation marks. For example:

>> Software Management# download 
ftp 10.0.0.1 “pub/SSL-5.1.1-
upgrade_complete.pkg”

If you are using anonymous mode when 
downloading the software package from an FTP 
server, the Nortel SNAS 4050 uses the following 
string as the password (for logging purposes): 

admin@<hostname>.isd

del

Removes a software package that has been 
downloaded but not yet activated (status is 

unpacked

). You cannot delete software versions with 

any other status (see the 

 command).
