Updating Firmware

Revision 4

4–2

4.2 About Firmware Files, Naming, Versions, and Archive Formats

Comtech EF Data’s Web site catalogues its firmware update files by product type (e.g., modem,

converter, etc.) and specific model/optional configuration. For example, the base modem bulk

firmware download hyperlink appears as

F0020731*_V###

(where ‘###’ indicates the firmware

version number, and ‘*’ is the revision letter of that version).

In addition to this base modem bulk firmware archive file, downloads are available for the

CDM-625A’s optional IP Packet Processor Module, available with or without AES Encryption.

This module requires separate firmware update.

Firmware updates are available from Comtech EF Data per the following table:

Label

EXE/ZIP Filename

Contains Image File (where ‘*’ is the revision letter and ‘###’

or ‘#.#.#’ is the version number)

F0020731*_V###

FW-0020731*

FW-0000342*-#.#.#.bin

IP Packet Processor Module option without AES Encryption.

CONTACT CEFD PRODUCT SUPPORT

FW-0000438*-#.#.#.bin

IP Packet Processor Module option with AES Encryption.

Only firmware for the CDM-625A base modem and IP Packet Processor Module

without AES Encryption is available for download from the CEFD Web site. Contact

Comtech EF Data Product Support to obtain the firmware update for the

CDM-625A IP Packet Processor Module with AES Encryption.

The firmware download files are available from Comtech EF Data in two archive file formats:

*.exe

(self extracting) and

*.zip

(compressed). Some firewalls will not allow the downloading of

*.exe files; in this case, download the *.zip file instead. If applicable, one version prior to the

current release is also available for download.

For additional help with "zipped" file types, refer to the help files provided with the

"PKZIP for Windows", "WinZip", or "ZipCentral" file archiving programs. “PKZIP for

Command-line” is not supported due to file naming conventions.

To verify the correct firmware number, see Step 1(D) in

Sect. 4.3.1 Getting Started: Prepare for

the Firmware Download
