Upgrading ISDN BRI DBM Software
A separate download to update PRI DBM functionality is not necessary; a PRI
upgrade is incorporated in the unit’s program code. However, if the iMarc unit has
a BRI DBM, the program code must be upgraded separately.
To upgrade an iMarc unit’s BRI DBM program code, you must transfer the
dbmprog.ocd
file in the Dial Backup Module directory using the
put
command.
Procedure
To perform a BRI DBM upgrade:
1. Initiate an FTP session to the device that you are upgrading.
2. Type
bin
to enter binary transfer mode.
3. Type
cd dbm
to change to the Dial Backup Module directory.
NOTE:
If the iMarc unit is not equipped with a DBM or the DBM does not contain
any downloadable software, the message
dbm: no such file or
directory
appears.
4. Perform a
put
of R
xxxxxx
.ocd (
xxxxxx
being the software release number) to
the dbmprog.ocd file to start the upgrade.
5. Close the FTP session.
6. Verify that the new software release was successfully installed as the DBM
Software Revision.
