Accessing the Release Notes

TFTP feature is enabled

TFTP server is enabled

3.If you are upgrading to Release 7.2 software, perform the following:

Using the TFTP client on the remote workstation, TFTP PKUNZIP.EXE to the \admin di- rectory of the CyberSWITCH to be upgraded.

TFTP RUGRADE.BAT to the \ (root) directory.

TFTP AUTOEXEC.BAT to the \ (root) directory.

If you are upgrading from Release 7.2 to a later release, skip this step. (These files are already included in 7.2 software).

4.Using the TFTP client on the remote workstation, TFTP UPGRADE.OSW to the \ (root) directory of the CyberSWITCH to be upgraded.

Notes: If you experience a transmission timeout, check the retransmission setting on the TFTP package. A retransmission rate of 10 seconds is usually sufficient; values less than that may not work properly.

If you experience a problem transferring the file with TFTP, wait about three minutes for the TFTP to fail, delete the incomplete file, and try again.

5.Telnet to the CyberSWITCH and issue the restart command.
