10.3 BootP Support

10.3.1 Upgrading the MP-1xx

When upgrading the MP-1xx (loading new software onto the gateway) using the BootP/TFTP
configuration utility:
•
From version 4.2 to version 4.4, the device loses its configuration. Therefore, to retain the
previous gateway configuration you must save the ini file before you replace the cmp file,
and reload it to the device. For information on backing up and restoring the gateway's
configuration refer to Section
•
From version 4.4 to version 4.4 or to any higher version, the device retains its configuration
(ini file), however, the auxiliary files (CPT, logo, etc.) may be erased.
When using the Software Upgrade wizard, available through the Web Interface (refer to Section
5.11.1 on page 131), the auxiliary files are saved as well.
Note: To save the cmp file to non-volatile memory, use the -fb command line switches. If the file
is not saved, the gateway reverts to the old version of software after the next reset. For
information on using command line switches, refer to Section
