5.1.4Repairing damaged firmware

In the rare case that the firmware is damaged after a firmware upgrade (which might happen if the appliance is turned off and turned on during the upgrade process), the appliance will remain in boot mode. In this mode, the Power LED at the rear panel flashes at about 1Hz, and the appliance attempts to restore the firmware over TFTP using the following default configuration:

•TFTP client IP address 10.0.0.2

•TFTP target device IP address 10.0.0.3

•Upgrade file name equal to CMN-XXXX.fl, where XXXX is the 4-digit Compliance Model Number (CMN) that is printed on the agency label of the appliance

5.1.4.1Repairing damaged firmware

Connect the appliance to the TFTP target device (using a cross-over cable or hub), which is set up with the default IP address (10.0.0.3).

Rename the upgrade file to the default file name (CMN-XXXX.fl).

The Power LED will Flash at about 2 Hz when the appliance is downloading the upgrade file, and it will Flash at about 4 Hz when it is programming the downloaded file to Flash. After it has successfully restored the firmware, the appliance reboots automatically and the Power LED illuminates.
