4304.0. "clearvisn" by HGOVC::ANDREWFUNG () Tue Mar 25 1997 00:49

    Hello,
    
    	From the clearVisn manuel I have seen that Router Configurator and
    Router Manager are running as an integrated application. So, can I
    running flash loader to upgrade firmware without installing Router
    Configurator(Only install Router manager) ?
    	Besides, can I upgrade the firmware of DECswitch 900EF without
    using flash loader ? Can I use downline upgrade ? I have tried to use
    downline upgrade but it seems doesn't work.
        Any ideas are welcome !!
    
    Rgds,
    Andrew.

Yes, you can upgrade without starting the router software. You need to start a
TFTP server application on the system that contains the image of the product
to upgrade.
Just run the application c:\Clearvis\Comet\bootp.exe which is a bootp/TFTP
loader.
Now Flashloader should work. If the TFTP server is started you can also use
the downline upgrade option using the Setup port on the
DEChub900 multiswitch or HubONE.
Any other SNMP MIB browser can also be used to load the firmware. DECnduplus
is also an option to load the firmware.

Success,
