Description
TFTP Manage 0x003A
This message is used to download system software files and to query the TFTP configuration. You can send this message no matter what state the Matrix Controller card is in.
To download CSP software, send the Begin Download ICB as well as appropriate Data ICB subtypes to send the following information to the CSP:
• Local Matrix Configuration Filename
• Adjacent Matrix Configuration Filename
• Local Matrix Server IP Address
• Adjacent Matrix Server IP Address
• Load Timestamp
Send the Begin Download ICB whenever you assign a new TFTP configuration file that contains information about a new load.
To query the TFTP configuration, send one of the Action ICB query subtypes. The response to a query includes the corresponding Data ICB subtype.
The Timestamp ICB is required only if the timestamp is not in the configuration file.
Save Options, Load Version & Load Filename are CSP-initiated ICBs in response to the Query ICBs.
Adjacent Matrix ICBs are needed only if you have an adjacent matrix, but they can also be sent directly to the adjacent matrix, instead of through the local matrix.
