If the hash code comparison is successful, then the existing executable software is copied as
a backup (.bak file), and the newly downloaded image becomes the unit executable.
The unit is automatically rebooted. If the new executable is found to be corrupt for any reason,
then the unit reverts to the backed-up, older image.
6.9 FTPing CCU and EUM Configuration Files
FTP enables you to transfer configuration files to CCUs and EUMs from anywhere that has
network access to the LMS4000 900 MHz Radio Network. FTP is a useful tool for the following
operations:
• Restoring a unit to an earlier working state.
• Restoring configuration files that have been corrupted.
• Configuring replacement CCUs and EUMs when units have failed.
• Changing default configurations, such as GOS.
Some of the configuration files may be the same throughout the network (port filter
configuration file, for example), and others are different for all units. Some configuration files
are loaded instantly (as soon as the file is FTPed), and some require a unit reboot to take
effect.
Table 20 provides a summary of the configuration files used in the CCUs and EUMs,
whether they are typically the same throughout the system, and whether they require a unit
reboot to take effect.
Table 20 FTPing Configuration Files
NOTE: System-wide means that the configuration file in question (for
example, the port configuration file) will normally be the same
throughout your network. Configuration files, such as the route
configuration file, vary from CCU to CCU.
