8. Building and Using a Firmware Library
New Device Models Not Supported by OpenLane
You can create your own subdirectory and definition files for Paradyne devices not yet supported by OpenLane. The device model number will appear in the
Procedure
1.Create a directory under /opt/pdn/OpenLane/database/firmware (Solaris) or c:\opt\pdn\OpenLane\database\firmware (Windows) for the device model. Start the directory name with fw and follow with the device model number. For example:
mkdir fw9880
2.Retrieve the firmware as described in Building a Firmware Library on page
3.Copy any firmware.dat file into the directory you just created in Step 1 and modify the file. The syntax is:
version=filename
FrameSaver Map Example:
01.02.01=R010201.ocd
DSL Map Example:
04.00.30=pc8314.3001.img
4.Edit the /opt/pdn/OpenLane/database/firmware/models.dat (Solaris) or c:\opt\pdn\OpenLane\database\firmware\models.dat
(Windows) file to map the device model number to the new directory name. The syntax is:
model=directory
Example:
9880=fw9880
You can determine the correct device model number from the OpenLane
Network Navigator screen.
