Migrating to a New Code Level
Notes:
1. In Version 1 Release 1 of the MAS, the lower level code does not have any
enhanced ability to retrieve the new (Version 2) operating code levels. If you
attempt to use the talk 6 in the operating code, the file transfer attempt will be
unsuccessful.
2. You must use either the firmware tftp or Xmodem to get the new level of
code.
To upgrade from any earlier release of operational code to a later level, do the
following:
1
Follow the instructions in “Updating System Firmware” on page 4-14 to
update the system firmware to the Version 2 level.
2
After starting the Firmware, select the following sequence of menus:
¹
Utilities menu
¹
Change Management
Then, select the TFTP Software option.
Note: You must have setup your IP addresses on the devices before you
can TFTP. (See section “Setting Up Remote Initial Program Load” on
page 4-19 to setup IP parameters in the firmware.)
3
Respond to the prompt to select which type of load to do (a configuration file
or a load image).
4
Respond to the prompt to select which bank to load.
Note: Files to be retrieved from the server should all be in the same
directory, and their permissions should be such that read is allowed
for anybody.
5
After you selected 2. Load Image, you will be prompted to select the type of
load image (that is, single image or modules).
¹
If the code load that you want to transfer consists of an LML.ld file plus
other load modules ending in .ld, select modules.
6
When the prompt
Enter Directory Path to Remote Load Modules
appears,
enter the pathname to retrieve all load modules belonging to this load image.
7
When prompted, select the medium to use for TFTP. Depending on the
adapters in your 2216, there could be choices for PCMCIA, several adapters,
and SLIP.
8
Information boxes appear as each load module is being transferred using
TFTP. Some time will transpire as each transferred load module is written to
the disk. An average load may take 10-12 minutes. When the entire load
has been transferred, the previous menu is displayed.
The Version 2 operational code comes in the form of multiple load modules,
headed by LML.ld.
