On the BASICS, V150 & V200 platforms, the syntax for this command is:
LICENSE UPDATE filename
where filename is the name of the licence file on the TFTP server, the TFTP server
address is taken from the Software Management menu - Professional.
The first time you upgrade to a version which requires a licence file you will be warned,
but will be given the chance to install a valid licence, so there is no added risk when
performing a remote upgrade.

5.4.2.3 Special case: upgrading from pre-version 6 software

When you first upgrade a unit from a pre-licence version of software (say V04_08.01) to
V07_01.01, on the initial reboot you will receive a warning when connecting which
reads:
*** INVALID SOFTWARE DETECTED: Software date (10-Mar-2011)
exceeds software maintenance expiry (1-Jan-2011) Revert to older
version or upgrade software maintenance license Press Y to
continue
This will appear every time you connect to the banner page until you install a valid
software licence, however the unit will continue to function.

5.4.2.4 Special case: upgrading to software for which you do not have a licence

If you have installed a valid licence for the version you are running and you try to
upgrade to a later version, for which you are not licensed, it will not let you load the
software. Instead you will see the message:
TFTP Result Failed: Invalid Software Maintenance License - The
unit will continue to run on the old version of Software
In this case you need to contact your local Vocality support representative for an
updated licence key.

Installing the Vocality Network Upgrade Tool (VNUT)

Units are supplied from the factory with the latest release of operating software. As
time goes by you may find that you need to load a different version to upgrade the
units. The Vocality Network Upgrade Tool (VNUT) is a TFTP server that is quick and
simple to install. It allows all current Vocality devices to be upgraded via TFTP. If you
would prefer to use another TFTP server please contact your local Vocality support
representative for advice.
