Managing Router Files
5-19
Putting a File
The Put File option lets you transfer files from the Site Manager workstation to
one or more routers. To transfer a file from the Site Manager workstation to a
router, you must do the following:
1. Choose the router(s) to which you want to transfer the files.
2. Examine the existing filenames on the router destination volume.
3. Verify the existence of adequate free space on the destination volume.
4. Transfer the files to the destination volume.
The following sections describe each of these steps.
Choosing the Routers
To transfer files to more than one router at a time, follow the instructions in the
earlier section, “Setting Up Multiple Routers,” to select the routers you want.
To transfer files to only one router, follow these steps from the Router Files
Manager window:
1. Select Options➔Router Connection from the Router File Manager
window.
2. Enter the IP address of the router to which you want to transfer files,
then click on OK.
Examining the Router Destination Volume
The router automatically overwrites any file that has the same filename as the file
you are transferring from your Site Manager workstation.
To avoid overwriting an existing file on the router destination volume, display a
list of the volume’s contents and determine the filenames that are already in use.
For information on how to do this, see “Displaying the Contents of a Volume”
earlier in this chapter.
Note: We recommend that you ping the router before you attempt to transfer a
file, if you are running IP in host-only mode on the destination router, and you
have configured the destination router with the same IP address on multiple
physical interfaces.
