Requirements

Firmware downloading requires the following feature packages:

The MX77 firmware downloading implements a process for loading

firmware into the EEPROM of the unified processor (UP) (NTMX77AA)

card. The main shelf of the Remote Switching Center-SONET (RSC-S)

configuration contains this card.

This method is used for upgrading firmware because of the high cost of

changes. Equipment upgrades that cause enhancements and maintenance of

multiple versions of EPROMs are examples of changes. This method spares

the cost of preparing, sending, and changing EPROMs on all cards. This

method saves the need for returning all EPROMs on current UP cards

equipped with a previous firmware version.
