File Loading Procedure
To load software files:
1. Verify that you have IP connectivity from your computer to the
NPU/Micro Base Station (either the MGMT or the DATA port). To
verify the connection, ping the unit's IP address and verify that PING
replies are being received.
2. To perform the upgrade, use a DOS TFTP utility with the following
syntax: tftp -i hostaddress put sourcefile
where -i stands for binary mode and hostaddress is the IP address
of the unit to be upgraded (NPU/µBST ). The put command instructs
the PC client to send a file to the hostaddress. sourcefile is the
name of the SW file in the PC Client.
For example, to load the file npu_1_0_2_15 to the NPU whose IP
address is 172.17.31.215, use the following command:
tftp -i 172.17.31.215 put npu_1_0_2_15
NOTE
It is recommended to upgrade all system elements with the latest software version.
Nevertheless, it is possible to upgrade each unit separately and independently.

. Following a successful completion of the file loading process, the
Transfer successful DOS message is displayed.
4
. The unit decompresses the loaded file and checks the integrity of
the new version. The new version replaces the previous shadow
version only after verification. If verification tests fail, the loaded
version will be rejected. The unit will reject a file if either the file
name or the version number matches the current Main versions.
5
. Check that the loaded versions exist in the unit:
