EAGLEFLASH(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual EAGLEFLASH(8)
NAME
eagleflash -- upload the firmware to an USB ADSL modem based on the Ana-
log Devices Eagle chipset
SYNOPSIS
eagleflash [-f device]
DESCRIPTION
The eagleflash tool uses the ugen(4) device to upload the fimware to an
USB ADSL modem supported by the ueagle(4) driver.
When called without any option, eagleflash will scan all USB controllers
present on your machine. It will then upload the firmware to the first
modem it found and exit. When called with the -f option, eagleflash will
try to upload the firmware to the specified device device
eagleflash chooses the correct firmware automatically depending on the
vendor Id/product Id pair of the modem.
When the modem is plugged on the USB bus, it appears as a pre-firmware
modem and waits for a firmware to be sent to him. Once the firmware has
been sent to the modem, the modem will disappear and reappear on the bus
a short time later with a new vendor Id/product Id pair. It should then
be recognized by the ueagle(4) driver.
EXAMPLES
A typical invocation of eagleflash should be:
eagleflash -f /dev/ugen0
DIAGNOSTICS
eagleflash: Sorry, no pre-firmware modem found! eagleflash was called
without any option and no pre-firmware modem was found on any USB con-
troller.
eagleflash: /dev/ugen%d: Not a pre-firmware device! eagleflash was
called with the -f option and the firmware has already been uploaded to
the modem or the specified ugen(4) device is not an USB ADSL modem sup-
ported by the ueagle(4) driver.
