Xmodem
The SLC supports using the Xmodem, Ymodem, or Zmodem protocols to send and receive files
across serial ports. An Xmodem repository on the SLC holds files that can be sent or have been
received. In order to use one of the protocols, the device port that will be used must not be
currently in use for any other purpose.
An example of sending a file with Zmodem to device port 3 using the CLI:
[slc431d]> set xmodem send 3 file update.bin protocol zmodem xfer binary
Starting Zmodem send of 117K file update.bin...
Sending: update.bin
Bytes Sent: 117988 BPS:919
Transfer complete
An example of receiving the same file with Zmodem from device port 4 using the CLI:
[slc431d]> se xmodem receive 4 protocol zmodem xfer binary
Starting Zmodem receive of file specified by protocol...
Receiving: update.bin.0
Bytes received: 117988/ 117988 BPS:937
Transfer complete
Note: When performing critical operations (such as firmware update over a serial
connection) with Xmodem, Ymodem or Zmodem, it is recommended to use the CLI to
send and receive files instead of the web interface, as web browsers may be subject to
timeouts which can interrupt the operation. It is also recommended that any timeouts that
may affect the CLI session be disabled so that the operation is not interrupted.
To manage the Xmodem repository, send files or receive files:
