Chapter 7 Upgrading the Cisco ATA Signaling Image

Upgrading the Signaling Image Manually

Upgrade Requirements

The following list contains the requirements for using the ata186us.exe file and the voice configuration menu to upgrade the Cisco ATA to the latest signaling image:

•A network connection between the PC from which you will invoke the executable file and the Cisco ATA

•A PC running Microsoft Windows 9X/ME/NT/2000

Syntax

ata186us [-any]{-h[host_ip]} {-p[port]} {-quiet} [-d1 -d2 -d3] <image file>

Definitions

•-any—Allow upgrade regardless of software and build versions (recommended).

•-h[host_ip]—Set the upgrade server to a specific IP address in cases where there may be more than one IP address for the host. The default behavior is that the program will use the first IP address it obtains when it runs the gethostbyname command.

•-p[port]—Set the server port to a specific port number (the default port number is 8000; use a different port number only if you are setting up an upgrade server other than the default).

•-quiet—Quiet mode; send all output to log file named as [port].log (useful when running the upgrade server as a daemon).

•-d1,-d2,-d3—Choose a verbosity level for debugging, with -d3 being the most verbose.

•image file—This is the name of the signaling image file to which the Cisco ATA will upgrade.

Example

To upgrade the Cisco ATA to the signaling image ata186-v2-15-020723a.zup, you can use the following syntax:

ata186us -any -d1 ata186-v2-15-020723a.zup

Upgrade Procedure

To perform the upgrade, follow these steps:

Procedure

Step 1 Run the executable file (see the “Syntax” section on page 7-5) from the Microsoft Windows DOS or command prompt. You will receive instructions on how to upgrade.

Step 2 On the Cisco ATA, press the function button to invoke the voice configuration menu.
