Notes on FW Upgrade 1. The Local Unit can handle either a Local or a Remote upgrade file, assuming the remote unit is attached and up and running. 2. The Remote Unit can only handle a Remote FW update file. 3. You must put matching versions on both units. 4. If upgrading PoC FW on a Local Unit with a powered Remote Unit, the Remote Unit will reboot after the Local Unit upgrades its FW. When a PoC FW update completes, the PoC board automatically reboots itself (whether Local or Remote). If the Local Unit is powering a Remote Unit, a reboot will cause a power classification event rebooting the entire Remote Unit. The only way to avoid this is to externally power the Remote Unit. 5. PoC Upgrade Status displays during the upgrade process (e.g., Upgrading PIC..., Copy complete. and then PIC will automatically reboot). 6. There are 3 different firmware files for the Ethernet extender devices. There is a baseboard firmware that is common to both the Local and Remote units. There is a Local daughterboard firmware and a Remote daughterboard firmware. 7. The file names can be changed; the system does not expect the long filenames listed above. Flash Upgrade status: This page is updated automatically every 10 seconds. The modem must be reset once the upgrade has finished. Status displayed includes Failed: bad source specified, Ready: finished correctly, Flash Section: the osup (One-Step-Update) filename. Upgrade Protocol: the file transfer protocol (EXTERN, FTP or TFTP). Server IPv4/v6: the IP address of the Upgrade (e.g., FTP) server. Filename: the name of the file to be transferred. Download Progress: e.g., x of y bytes (z %). Hardware Reset: click the button to reset the EO2P to factory default settings. Successful SW Update: Ready: finished correctly indicates a successful SW update. 33706 Rev. F EO2P User Guide |Page 35
