Upgrading the Software

Your ISP may from time to time provide you with an upgrade to the software running on the ADSL Barricade. All system software is contained in a single file, called an image. The image is composed of several distinct parts, each of which implements a different set of functions.

Configuration Manager provides an easy way to upload a new software image, or a specific part of the image, to the memory on the ADSL Barricade. To upgrade the image, follow this procedure:

1.Log into the Configuration Manager, click the [Admin] tab. Then click [Image Upgrade] in the task bar. The [Image Upgrade] page is shown in Figure 59.

Figure 59. Image Upgrade Page

2.In the [Upgrade File:] text box, type the path and file name of the file as provided by your ISP. You can click [Browse...]

to search for it on your hard drive.

The name of the upgrade file must be one of the following:

-TEImage.bin

-TEDsl.gsz
