Updating Boot Rom Flash - Dialogic Brooktrout Digital Board Installation And Configuration Manual

Updating Boot ROM Flash

March 2013
Typically, it is not necessary to update your Boot ROM. Use the following
procedure to update your Boot ROM Flash firmware only when told to do
so by a Dialogic Technical Services and Support Representative.
The Dialogic® Brooktrout® driver must be running when you update the
boot ROM flash.
Use the following procedure to update your Boot ROM
Flash firmware.
1. Ensure that each board has a unique module number. Maintain
a current list. See
page 26 for more information about modules and module number
assignment. You can obtain a list of modules using the modinfo
program.
2. Use the firm program to perform a flash update (do not interrupt
the update process):
firm -m <module> -t 2 flashupd.bin
where: <module> is the hardware module number.
Note: This process takes less than a minute to complete. It is
important not to interrupt the update process. If you interrupt
the update process, you cannot reboot your board.
