Software Update
To simplify the firmware update process, SAF Tehnika JSC provides special update package, as a
new version is available. This update pack is available as archive (e.g. zip), which includes firmware file
(with *.elf.ezip,Ec extension), upgrade instructions, release notes and MIB files for SNMP protocol.
The latest CFIP series firmwares are available in the following URL:
https://www.saftehnika.com/downloads/firmware/cfip
(registration required)
The main method for firmware upgrade is being done via Web GUI, which automates the whole
firmware upgrade process. To perform software upgrade from Web GUI, please go to “Configuration
System configuration” and in “Upgrade software” section press “Browse…” button and locate
firmware upgrade file (e.g. cfipf000.elf.ezip,Ec) on your hard disk.
Although upgrade procedure usually takes less than 1 min.,
Management CPU might initiate
defragmentation of flash memory and upgrade process may take up to 3-5 minutes. Please do not
unplug power until firmware upgrade procedure is finished - Web GUI will automatically reconnect
and login page will appear.
Besides there are other various ways how the user can update the CFIP management software by
uploading the appropriate firmware file to the CFIP Lumina flash disk and further editing boot
configuration file if necessary. The file upload can be performed:
–
via Ethernet management port using update package,
–
via Ethernet management port using FTP,
–
via Ethernet management port using TFTP, or
via RS232 serial port using Xmodem protocol.
Following chapters
describe other methods how to update software.

Update Software with Update Pack
To update CFIP software using the update pack, proceed as follows:
–
uncompress the package;
–
change the CFIP IP address to 192.168.205.10,
or
edit ‘send.205.xx’ files by replacing
“192.168.205.10” with actual CFIP IP address;
–
arp –d
ip_addr
[
if_addr
] deletes the host specified by ip_addr. If another host with a
duplicate IP address exists on the network, the ARP cache may have had the MAC address
for the other computer placed in it.
arp –d
