Considerations when updating of configuration
Configuration files are only fully compatible if the backup and restore are done on products that
have CPUs with the same endianess. Both IPBS1 and IPBL have "big-endian" CPUs compared
to IPBS2 which have "little-endian" CPU. Hence, IPBS1 and IPBL are compatible.
If a device (e.g. IPBS2) is configured and the configuration is taken from another type of device
(e.g. IPBS1), some lines in the configuration will be skipped by the configured device (IPBS2).
This is because devices of different types do not have the same hardware and some
configuration lines are therefore not applicable in the configured device (IPBS2).
Updating firmware
The software can be updated. Follow the steps below to update IPBS/IPBL with the firmware.
Download firmware from the IP-DECT system provider.
