If you have to upload firmware to a router or a switch with xmodem, get the package lrzsz-0.12.20.tar.gz. Configure it with
tar xvzf lrzsz-0.12.20.tar.gz cd lrzsz-0.12.20 ./configure --disable-nls && sudo make install
Then start a console session with screen
screen /dev/tty.Keyserial1 9600
then, when you are asked from the program up upload the firmware using xmodem, do:
Press ctrl-a :exec !! lsx -b -X /path/srw2016-24-10086.ros
the upload will start.
