5.2Manual System Software Management via BOOTP Server

SpeedTouch™ system	The SpeedTouch™ system software is based on BOOTP, a standard mechanism used
software management	for booting diskless stations.
	The SpeedTouch™ is able to slip in BOOTP mode, allowing a BOOTP server to manage
	the SpeedTouch™ file system, and submit upgrade files to it.
Important note
Important note	It is recommended only to use the procedure described below in case you are familiar
	with the use of a BOOTP server, and the mechanisms on which BOOTP is based.
	Upgrading the system software via the procedure described below will reset the Speed-
	Touch™ to its factory default settings. Therefore, prior to performing an upgrade of the
	system software it is recommended to back up the SpeedTouch™ configuration.
Before you start
Before you start	You need a third party BOOTP server installed on the computer from which you want
	to perform the SpeedTouch™ system software upgrade.
	Make sure that the SpeedTouch™ is connected to your computer via its Ethernet port.
	You will need the SpeedTouch™ Medium Access Control (MAC) address of your
	SpeedTouch™ device. To retrieve this address see “ System Information” on page 34.
	Make sure a valid SpeedTouch™ system software image file is available on your local
	disk.

Procedure To upgrade the SpeedTouch™ system software:

1In a preliminary step, make sure that your SpeedTouch™ is powered off and that a BOOTP server is readily installed on the computer from which you intend to per- form the system software upgrade.

2Configure the BOOTP server to use the SpeedTouch™ system software image file in its reply to BOOTP requests from the SpeedTouch™ you want to upgrade.

3To identify the BOOTP requests from the SpeedTouch™, you will need to specify its MAC address and define an IP range for basic communication between the BOOTP server and the SpeedTouch™.

4Use a pencil to press and hold the Defaults button at the back of the Speed- Touch™:
