radio unit.

•
MINI-LINK PT 2010 unit.
When replacing an optical SFP, no configuration is needed.
RMMs containing new licenses can be replaced, no new configuration is
needed.
When replacing a MINI-LINK PT 2010 unit, the new MINI-LINK PT 2010 must
be configured according to the set up requirements. The previous RMM or a
new RMM must be inserted as they are not included with the package.
9.7
Software Management
MINI-LINK PT 2010 software and Packet Terminal software is upgraded using
load modules. Each load module is downloaded from an FTP server and stored
in the flash memory.
The upgrade is manually started by the operator who specifies product and
revision number of the load module to be upgraded. When flash programming
is completed, a MINI-LINK Craft connected to the MINI-LINK PT 2010
automatically activates the upgraded software, if the activation is not traffic
affecting, otherwise the operator is requested to manually perform the activation
in the planned maintenance window.
9.8
License Management
MINI-LINK PT 2010 has a smart card reader on the board, and the RMM
containing licenses can be accessed through the Ethernet Management Port.
Optional features can be expanded by installing license keys that enable
additional optional features. Licenses for optional features are distributed in a
License Key File (LKF), which can be stored on the RMM.
Features for the MINI-LINK PT 2010 are only enabled if a corresponding license
is available on the inserted RMM.
To upgrade the licenses on the MINI-LINK PT 2010, new licenses can be
downloaded remotely.
