SpeedTouch™ System Software

Procedure To upgrade/restore the SpeedTouch™ system software:

Step Action

1 Make sure that your SpeedTouch™ is powered off and that a BOOTP/ TFTP server is readily installed on the computer from which you intend to perform the system software upgrade

2 Configure the BOOTP/TFTP server to use the SpeedTouch™ system

software image file in its reply to BOOTP requests from the SpeedTouch™ you want to upgrade.

3 To 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/TFTP server and the SpeedTouch™.

4 Set the SpeedTouch™ in BOOTP by executing the :software upgrade CLI command:

=>:software upgrade

The SpeedTouch™ is in BOOTP mode when the power LED is solid orange.

5 The BOOTP/TFTP server will reply to the BOOTP requests and will perform the required operations to allow the system software to be fetched by the SpeedTouch™ via TFTP.

6 After checking whether the received system software is valid for the device, the SpeedTouch™ will start in normal operational mode to complete the upgrade.

This step can take some time to complete.

The upgrade process can be followed via a serial console!
