A.3 Updating the software and the configurations
Both the BIOS as well as the routing application code and the configurations are stored in the device flash memory.
This is handled as a standard disk unit. The executable codes have a .bin extension and can by updated via FTP us-
ing the Atlas 250 router FTP server, and by XModem through the device local console.
The configurations have a .cfg extension and can only be read and written via FTP. If you wish to make copies of
your configurations, simply obtain the .cfg router file possessed by the router. In the same way, if you wish to use a
configuration, simply overwrite the aforementioned file.
Note
UPDATING THE APPLICATION
The code storage system simulates a standard disk drive unit: you must make sure that the application
file name loaded in the device coincides with that already existing. If this is not so, it is possible that the
loaded code will not automatically activate and the system will continue to execute the code that exis-
ted prior to the updating.
If you always use the same file name, the system will delete the previous code, substitute it with the
new code and activate automatically.
