X
To set the automatic update every time the Mediatrix 1204 restarts:
1. If not already done, setup the Image server used to download the software (see “Before
Downloading” on page 171 ).
2. If not already done, configure the Image path as described in “Setting up the Image Path” on
page 174 .
3. If not already done, configure the image hosts and ports as defined in “Software Servers
Configuration” on page 172 .
4. In the imageMIB , set the imageTransferProtocol variable to either http or tftp .
If you are using the HTTP protocol to download the software, be aware that your HTTP server may
activate some caching mechanism for the software download. This mechanism caches the initial
software download for later processing, thus preventing changes or update of the original download
by the user. This can cause problems if a user wants to modify the software download and perform
it again immediately. The result will still return the original download and not the new one.
5. If you are using the HTTP protocol and your HTTP server requires authentication, set the following:
• The user name in the imageTransferUsername variable.
• The password in the imageTransferPassword variable.
6. Set the imageAutoUpdateOnRestartEnable variable to enable .
7. Set the imageAutoUpdateEnable variable to enable .
The automatic software update will be performed each time the Mediatrix 1204 restarts.
Caution:
When downloading via HTTP, the image server’s port must be 80. You can query the actual port
assigned in the imagePrimaryPort and imageSecondaryPort read-only variables (in the ipAddressStatus
folder).
If you are using a DHCP server and it did not provide the proper port, reconfigure it with the proper port or
use a static configuration. See
“Software Servers Configuration” on page 172 for more details.
