The prior version of the TFTP server allowed you to specify the
Ethernet address and load file.
How would I enter that in HUBloader?
Again, HUBloader understands how to muck with hubs and Googleswiches,
but DECservers and/or access points....help
Any thoughts?

p.s. my old version of HUBloader is now ill...aarugh...since I put on
the CLEARvisn stuff...aarguh

| 3623.1 | My suggestion to try.... | NETCAD::BATTERSBY | Don't use time/words carelessly | Fri Jun 14 1996 11:54 | 12 |
Well, the way I do this, (if this is what you have in mind),
is to start up the router manager (which starts up the tftp
server). Then you start up Flash loader. there will be a button
labeled "Edit list". Click this and you can edit the loaddata.dat
file with the info to load that particular device.
then you click the button below that labeled "load from list"
You can comment out the images you don't want loaded by adding
the "#" at the beginning of the lines you don't want loaded.
At least this works for me for switches & concentrators & stuff.
I don't know if this will work for decservers or not.

| 3623.2 | try this | GIDDAY::MORAN | Sat Jun 15 1996 11:26 | 13 | |
The aupported way ssoon to load decservers will be via the new
clearvisn server manager. This comes with a TFTP and a BOOTP loader
that is very nice - and it works too !!!
I used this tftp loader the other day to give a brouter 90 a new
version of software and had no problems - though I do miss the block
completed counter that was in the old netrider loader :-(
Anyway check out www-remote.lkg.dec.com for pointers on where to
download the clearvisn server manager kit.
Best of luck - Shaun

| 3623.3 | R we clarifying this... | PTOJJD::DANZAK | Pittsburgher � | Sun Jun 16 1996 23:00 | 11 |
Thanks! (I thought that I was really missing something here...)
So, basically CLEARvisn will NOT load everything that it needs to -
another "gotcha" for devices that do BOOTP to be loaded.
Are we going to clarify this for folks who buy an access point or
DECbrouter or DECserver and try to load it with the "flash loader" and
then find out..."oh I need the server manager"?
(grumble)
