Some TFTP servers constrain the format of the filename, depending on
the operating system of the server. For example, a TFTP server running
on a PC under Windows 3.1 may permit only 8.3 format filenames (8
characters, period, and three extension characters).

3. Select 

Save Config Remotely

.

To retrieve current configuration information from a TFTP server, follow the steps listed below:

1. Set the Server IP Address field to the IP address of the machine running the TFTP server program. 

If the ADTRAN TFTP server is being used, the IP address displays in the Server IP Address field. For 
other TFTP servers, please refer to the appropriate documentation.

2. Change the TFTP Server File Name to a unique filename, including the complete path. This will be the 

name of the configuration file retrieved from the remote server.

Configuration changes will not be implemented until all Telnet sessions
are closed. Loading a new configuration may disrupt data traffic.

3. Select 

Load and Use Config

.

IP address and management port settings remain unchanged when a
configurative is retrieved from a TFTP server.

The system must be manually reset after downloading new software. When the unit has successfully 
loaded and programmed the new software into its FLASH memory, it will begin uploading the code to the 
standby controller. This will be indicated on the menu and the 

LED on the standby card will display 

solid yellow.

The standby card must remain in place until the process is complete and
the 

LED is no longer solid yellow. Removing the standby card

during the uploading process will corrupt the software.
