file sdvars set checkpoint 3

When the software download is started, you can use SNMP

to query its progress by reading the checkpoint variable. If

the variable has a value of 2, for example, you know that

the access point is trying to execute the tftp get

statement. If the value is 3, you know the script has

completed and the reboot statement was executed.

Terminate

Use Terminate to stop the download process in an access

point. The variable’s format is:
File>

sdvars set terminate <value>

If StartTime is counting down, setting this variable stops

the timer, halting the software download process.
Use caution with this variable. If the script file is being

downloaded, or the commands in the script file are being

executed, setting this variable interrupts the processing at

its current location, halting the software download process.

This can leave the access point in an unknown state.
It is your responsibility to determine this state and take

any corrective action necessary. If the NextPowerUpTime

variable is counting down, setting this variable stops the

timer, halting the reboot process.
