to reset. Once the system has been reset, the new software will be running.
After new software has been downloaded to the MX2800 system, a
condition known as a "software version mismatch" exists on the active
card. The currently running software version is different from the version
of the new software that was just programmed into the card's nonvolatile
memory. This condition occurs because a manual card reset is necessary
for the card to begin running the new software. If the software version
being run by the system before the upgrade began was 2.00 or higher, this
mismatch will be indicated by a TL1 standing condition (condition code
PROGFLT) and a repeating message displayed at the bottom of all menu
screens. This is not a service-affecting condition; however, it is recom-
mended that the download process be completed by resetting the active
card as soon as it is practical. Doing so assures that all improvements in
the new software are fully available.

Configuration Transfer

Select from the Utilities menu to transfer files to and from a TFTP server. The Config
Config Transfer
Transfer option is used to save the MX2800 configuration as a backup file, ensuring that the same configu-
ration can be used with multiple MX2800 units. Only one configuration transfer session (upload or
download) can be active at a time.
Before using Config Transfer, the MX2800 should have a valid IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway (if required) and should be
connected to an Ethernet network.

Saving to a TFTP Server

To save current configuration information to a TFTP server, follow the steps listed below:
1. Set the
Server IP Address
If the ADTRAN TFTP server is being used, the IP address displays in the Server IP Address field. For
other TFTP servers, refer to the appropriate documentation.

saved to the remote server.
