Chapter 4. FLASH UPGRADING

Flash Updating via Internet
The CDM-800 Gateway Router uses 'Flash memory' technology internally. This makes software
upgrading very simple, and updates can now be sent over satellite, via the Internet (Figure 4-1), via
E-mail, or on CD.
This chapter outlines the complete upgrading process as follows:
•
New firmware can be downloaded via the Internet to an external PC.
•
The upgrade can be performed without opening the unit by simply connecting the unit to the
Ethernet port of the external PC.
•
The firmware update is transferred, via File Transfer Protocol (FTP), from the external PC to
the unit.
