1.3.2 Access via CLI

Command Line

Interface (CLI)

12

You can access the Command Line Interface (CLI) via: A Telnet session

This requires that TCP/IP connectivity exists between the host from which the Telnet session is opened and the SpeedTouch™. Your SpeedTouch™ and the connected PC must have an IP address in the same subnet.

Quote site commands (over FTP)

For more information, see “ Quote site command” on page 16.

For information on CLI commands, see the SpeedTouch™ CLI Reference Guide.

1.3.3 Access via FTP

File Transfer Protocol

(FTP)

You can access the file system of the SpeedTouch™ via the File Transfer Protocol (FTP), in order to:

Restore or backup configuration files, templates or language packs. Upgrade your configuration or firmware.

File system The SpeedTouch™ file system is stored on nonvolatile memory, and contains the SpeedTouch™ software, service template files and (optionally) default setting files.
FTP session To open an FTP session:

1 Open a Command Prompt window. In Windows XP for instance:

1On the Windows task bar, click Start.

2Select (All) Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

2At the prompt, type ftp followed by the IP address of your SpeedTouch™ (default is 192.168.1.254).

3Enter your SpeedTouch™ security user name and password.

The default user is ‘Administrator’ and the default password is blank.

4 The example below shows an FTP session to the SpeedTouch™ file system:

File system structure The structure of the file system is very simple: It consists of a single root directory called root and a subdirectory called dl.

The root directory contains:

all the necessary files for the SpeedTouch™ to boot correctly the dl directory

The dl (download) directory contains the software image.

If you made changes to the SpeedTouch™ configuration and saved them, a user.ini configuration settings file is created in the dl subdirectory.

FTP file transfer To allow correct file transfers, set the transfer mode to “binary”: At the ftp prompt, type bin and press Enter.

Turn on the hashing option to see the progression of the file transfer: At the ftp prompt type hash and press Enter.

Example:
