Reinstalling System Software Using
Recovery Mode
The AastraLink Pro 160 contains an automatic fail-back mode in its onboard
firmware that allows the system to be recovered if it encounters a problem when
booting from the CompactFlash root file system.
The AastraLink Pro 160 enters automatic “recovery mode” after a failed boot. If
necessary, it is also possible for you to initiate recovery mode, by booting the
system with the CompactFlash card removed (see
“Manual Recovery Mode”
on
page 7-13
for instructions).
When the AastraLink Pro 160 is in recovery mode, you can use your web browser
to access the Recovery Mode UI, which allows you to:
•
Reprogram the CompactFlash card back to the default “greenfield” state, as if
it were just received new from the factory.
•
Reprogram the Onboard flash (firmware), using a new firmware image.
•
Restore a previous .
avf
backup file onto the ComapctFlash.
Caution:
Reprogram the Onboard flash under the direction of Aastra support
personnel only. Incorrect usage can make the AastraLink Pro 160
unbootable, requiring the device to be returned to the factory for repair.
