110 Administration for the Avaya G250 and Avaya G350 Media Gateways
Changing the default bank
By default, when you turn on or reset the G250/G350, the G250/G350 loads firmware from
Bank B. To change the default bank from which firmware is loaded during startup, use the
set
boot bank
command. For example, to configure the G250/G350 to load firmware from Bank A
on startup, enter
set boot bank bank-A
. Now, when you reset the G250/G350, it will load
firmware from Bank A.
To display the bank from which the G250/G350 is currently set to load its firmware upon startup
or reset, use the
show boot bank
command.
Loading firmware from the non-default bank
You can use the
ASB
button on the G250/G350 front panel to load firmware from a bank other
than the default bank during startup:
1. Press and hold the
reset
button.
2. Press and hold the
ASB
button.
3. Release the
reset
button.
4. Release the
ASB
button.
For example, if the G250/G350 is configured to load firmware from Bank B, use the steps listed
above to reset the G250/G350 to load the firmware from Bank A instead.
Upgrading software and firmware using FTP/TFTP
To upgrade software or firmware, you must obtain an upgrade file from Avaya. Place the file on
your FTP or TFTP server. Then, use one of the following commands to upload the file to the
G250/G350. For each of these commands, include the full path of the file and the IP address of
the FTP or TFTP host as parameters. When you enter the command, the CLI prompts you for a
username and password.
Note:
Note:
In addition to using the CLI to upgrade software and firmware, you can use the
Avaya IW and the GIW. See
Accessing Avaya IW
on page 44 and
Accessing
GIW
on page 47.
