Chapter 3 Provision the MQAM

File Selection Dialog Window

The File Selection Dialog window appears when you click the Select button on the
Advanced Parameters tab. This window lets you specify the configuration file for the
MQAM.
The boot/tftp process allows the MQAM, after power up or reset, to request and
receive configuration parameters, application downloads, and provisioning from the
network bootp server.
When an MQAM boots, it sends a bootp request to get an IP address. The DNCS,
which is a bootp server, uses a bootp reply to assign an IP address to the MQAM, if
the unit is provisioned in the DNCS database. The configuration file selected in the
File Selection Dialog window is included in the bootp reply. The MQAM uses the
information in the configuration file to determine whether it is running the correct
version of application code. If the MQAM is not running the correct version of
application code, it requests the correct image file from the DNCS.
The following diagram shows an example of the File Selection Dialog window.
