Software Upgrade Overview (CLI)
The IP-20 software installation process includes the following steps:
1
Download
–
The files required for the installation or upgrade are downloaded
from a remote server.
2
Installation
–
The downloaded software and firmware files are installed in all
modules and components of the IP-20 that are currently running an older
version.
3
Reset
–
The IP-20 is restarted in order to boot the new software and firmware
versions.
Software and firmware releases are provided in a single bundle that includes
software and firmware for all components in the system. When you download a
software bundle, the system verifies the validity of the bundle. The system also
compares the files in the bundle to the files currently installed in the IP-20 and its
components, so that only files that need to be updated are actually downloaded.
A message is displayed for each file that is actually downloaded.
Note:
When downloading an older version, all files in the bundle may be
downloaded, including files that are already installed.
Software bundles can be downloaded via HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, or SFTP. After the
software download is complete, you can initiate the installation.
Note:
Before performing a software upgrade, it is important to verify that
the system date and time are correct. See
When upgrading a node with unit protection, upgrade the standby
unit first, then the active unit.
