Operating Procedures

4.1

The 10GbE PTM consists of three PhyX® devices and a micro-controller (CPU). This procedure

describes how to update both CPU SW & PhyX® FW using a single .pfw binary file.

The 10GbE PTM is delivered with the latest firmware available at the time of production. New fir-

mare versions will be posted on the Dell support page. The latest firmware can be found at:

http://support.dell.com/support/

Step 1. Download the 10GbE PTM firmware .zip file and extract the .pfw binary file.

Step 2. Connect to the 10GbE PTM using an SSH Client as described in

the 10GbE PTM CLI," on page

Step 3. From the CMC command line, connect to the 10GbE PTM CLI. Enter:

Note:

At least 20 seconds must have passed since the last power cycle of the 10GbE PTM

module before running the following connect command.

$ connect switch-<n>

where <n> is the number of the switch -- 2 in our example.

The prompt should change to #.

Step 4. To start the upgrade process, run the command:

# copy image from-file

The system will now wait for a ".pfw" file to be transferred from the SSH client.

Step 5. In your SSH client, initiate file transfer by pulling down the Transfers menu and clicking

Send Files. Provide the path to the ".pfw" file and send it.
