NGX R62 Trial & FTP Connection

[jemma_noor]

Hi CPUG Community,

Running a test mode upgrade from NG FP3 to NGX R62 and now trying run upgrade_import but I can't transfer the files to the NGX R62 SecurePlatform box via ftp.

I have new policy that allows all connections to the gateway (..Any, Any), and the smarttracker shows the client ftp connection is being accepted but somehow I am not connecting?

Is there any way I can transfer the upgrade_import files to the secureplatform box via ftp?

Thank you.

You should be able to place the file onto an ftp server and then use the ftp client on the SPLAT to get the file. If I remember correctlty then SPLAT doesn't have an FTP Server on it so you can't push a file but you should be able to pull the file to the box.

Hi,

I don't know if I'm being a tad silly here but I can't seem to get the upgrade_import to work.

I log on as admin to secureplatform box, then type expert mode and enter the login for this. I copied the export file using secureplatforms ftp client to a temp directory (/temp/temp) and change permissions for both upgrade_import and .tgz export file to allow for execution permissions (-rwxrwx--x) for all (chmod a+e filename).

Yet the error I receieve is "upgrade_import: cannot execute binary file".

Please advise.

Thank you.
