adminDownload
Module: Novell-LANtern-Admin-MIB
OID (symbolic): Novell-LANtern-Admin-MIB::adminDownload
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.23.2.1.1.18
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: A write to adminDownload of temporaryChange(1) or permanentChange(2) causes the LANtern network monitor to discontinue its normal functions and perform a TFTP read of the file specified by adminDownLoadFile from the server specified by adminDownLoadServer into RAM. Upon successful completion of the file transfer, the new image is written to the flash EPROM memory (permanentChange only), destroying the previous image. The LANtern network monitor then performs a warm restart to activate the new image.
A read of adminDownLoad returns the status of the last download. The values temporaryChange(1) and permanentChange(2) indicate a download is in progress. tftpFailed(4) indicates the server failed to respond or the transfer timed out. badFile(5) occurs if the LANtern network monitor determines the downloaded file has been corrupted or is not a LANtern executable. All other error codes are the values defined by the TFTP protocol [RFC 783], offset by six.
Note: adminDownloadFile and adminDownLoadServer must be set prior (separate PDU) to setting adminDownLoad.
What is adminDownload?
Writing temporaryChange(1) or permanentChange(2) tells the LANtern to TFTP-fetch the firmware named in adminDownLoadFile from adminDownLoadServer and, for permanentChange, burn it to flash and warm-restart; reading this object afterward reports the outcome, e.g. downloadSuccess(3), tftpFailed(4), or badFile(5), so an admin can confirm the upgrade actually worked.
