If the system upgrade process is aborted before it’s complete, the
system will work as normal with the original software.
About far end ISDN system upgrade
NOTE!
Far end software upgrade is only possible when in an ISDN
conference with one other far end endpoint. Both systems must be on
software version F3.0 or newer for this functionality.
The system upgrade procedure
To upgrade using the web interface, please do the following steps
1.
Connect to the system that shall be upgraded using ISDN
2.
Copy the new software file to a folder on your computer, for
instance
c:\software
.
3.
Type the IP address of the TANDBERG MXP system that the
software upgrade is going to be done from (for instance 10.0.8.77)
in a standard browser, such as Internet Explorer 6.0. The web
interface of the codec will then be displayed.
4.
Select the
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
tab on top of the page, and
then the sub-tab
FAR END UPGRADE
.
5.
Enter the release key for the system to be upgraded in the ‘Release
Key’ field. If no release key is given, the Far End System will use
the previously stored release key if possible. This will work when
upgrading from a main release to a dot release.
6.
Make sure the setting “Far End System Upgrade” is set to “On” at
the remote site. This setting can be found in the Settings/General/
Permissions menu.
7.
Enter the password set at the far end for remote upgrade (default
password is “TANDBERG”)
8.
Press ‘Install Software’ .The system will now use about 90% of the
call capacity to transfer the software file across. During this time,
audio and video will be turned off.
9.
Once the software has been transferred and verified at the far
end, you will get a new webpage with information that the upgrade
of the far end was successful. At the same time, a message box
will appear at the remote system asking if you want to reboot the
system to activate the new software.
10.
To activate the new software. The ISDN connection needs to be
closed, and the TANDBERG MXP system must be rebooted. In the
menu on the system under ‘Control Panel/System Information’,
the installed software should now be displayed as the ‘Software
Version’.
