Installing Switch Software
User Interface software comes pre-loaded on your
MPX
. You do not have to reload unless you
are upgrading, backing up, or reloading due to file corruption.
There are different methods for loading software into your switch. The method you use
depends on your hardware configuration and the condition of the switch. These methods are:
•
FTP
Server - The Omni Switch/Router has a built-in
FTP
server. If you have
FTP
client soft-
ware, you can
FTP
to the switch and load new software.
•
FTP
Client - The Omni Switch/Router can also be an
FTP
client. You can use this by
connecting a terminal to the switch and using the set of
FTP
commands in the User Inter-
face. You can also do this through a telnet session.
•
ZMODEM
- You can load software directly through the serial port with any terminal emula-
tor that supports the
ZMODEM
protocol. You can do this using the file commands in the
User Interface or through the boot line prompt. Note that a
ZMODEM
transfer of larger files
can take several minutes to complete.
Do Not Mix Software Versions
When loading software, ensure that the versions of software for all the modules are from the
same release. Mixing earlier versions of software with current versions can cause the switch to
reset or hang.
File Transfer/Corruption Problems
If at anytime, a file transfer fails, a fragment of the file may be left on your system. This
remaining file is corrupted. You should delete the file fragment and reload the file before
continuing. If the
MPX
image file (
mpx.img
) is corrupted, you will receive a message during
the boot sequence requesting you to delete the file. You should delete the file and reload it
using
ZMODEM
through the boot line prompt. See
Using ZMODEM With the Boot Line Prompt
on page 5-5 for information on loading through the boot prompt.
