Software Upgrades
Software Upgrades
The software level of the IP Office Administration suite and the core software within the IP Office
hardware should always be the same. Installing a new version of IP Office Manager includes core
software files appropriate for upgrading the hardware.
•
Validated Upgrades
IP Office 2.1 software supports validated upgrades. This allows remote upgrades to be
attempted. However validated upgrades are only supported for units with core software level 2.1
or higher already installed.
For hardware with Level 2.0 or earlier software installed, validated upgrades are not supported.
Therefore, when upgrading a system to Level 2.1, the upgrade must be done from a PC running
IP Office Manager that:
•
Has a fixed IP address.
•
Is connected on the same LAN segment as the IP Office control units.
•
Pre 2.0 IP403 Systems
These systems must follow a two-stage upgrade process. See
Upgrading an IP403 to Software
Level 2.
