Software Upgrade Wizard - AudioCodes MediaPack MP-124 User Manual

Notes:
You can also load the Auxiliary files using the ini file. Before you load the files to the device,
in the ini file you need to include certain ini file parameters associated with these files.
These ini file parameters specify the files that you want loaded and whether they must be
stored in the non-volatile memory. For a description of the ini file parameters associated
with the auxiliary files, refer to ''Configuration Files Parameters'' on page 303.
To load the auxiliary files via the ini file, take these 3 steps:
In the ini file, define the auxiliary files to be loaded to the device. You can also define in
1.
the ini file whether the loaded files must be stored in the non-volatile memory so that
the TFTP process is not required every time the device boots up.
Save the auxiliary files you want to load and the ini file in the same directory on your
2.
PC.
Invoke a BootP/TFTP session; the ini and auxiliary files are loaded to the device.

Software Upgrade Wizard

The Software Upgrade Wizard guides you through the process of software upgrade:
selecting files and loading them to the device. The wizard also enables you to upgrade
software while maintaining the existing configuration. Using the wizard obligates you to load
and burn a cmp file to the device. You can choose to also use the wizard to load the ini and
auxiliary files (e.g., Call Progress Tones), but this option cannot be pursued without loading
the cmp file. For the ini and each auxiliary file type, you can choose to reload an existing
file, load a new file, or not load a file at all.
The Software Upgrade Wizard allows you to load the following files:
cmp (mandatory) - compressed firmware file
ini - configuration file
Auxiliary files: CPT (Call Progress Tone), PRT (Prerecorded Tones), FXS Coefficient,
and USRINF (User Info)

•
Saving an auxiliary file to flash memory may disrupt traffic on the device.
To avoid this, disable all traffic on the device by performing a graceful
lock (refer to ''Locking and Unlocking the Device'' on page 208).
•
You can schedule automatic loading of updated auxiliary files using
HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, or NFS (refer to the Product Reference Manual).
•
Before upgrading the device to a new major software version (e.g., from
version 5.2 to 5.4), save a copy of the device's configuration settings (i.e.,
ini file) to your PC (refer to ''Backing Up and Restoring Configuration'' on
page 217), and ensure that you have all the original auxiliary files (e.g.,
CPT file) currently being used by the device. After you have upgraded the
device, upload these files to the device.
•
The Software Upgrade Wizard requires the device to be reset at the end
of the process, which may disrupt its traffic. To avoid this, disable all
traffic on the device before initiating the wizard by performing a graceful
lock (refer to ''Locking and Unlocking the Device'' on page 208).
