12.8.1 Dual Firmware Block Structure
The Prestige P1100 employs a “dual firmware block structure” where one block is called the “main block” and the other block is called the “backup block”. The benefits of this approach are:
∙You can upload the current firmware into the backup block
∙If the firmware in the main block gets corrupted for some reason, the Prestige will try to boot from the backup block automatically so service won’t get interrupted.
12.8.2 Upload Router Firmware via the Console Port
FTP or TFTP are the preferred methods for uploading router firmware to your Prestige. However in the event of your network being down, uploading router firmware is only possible with a direct connection to your Prestige via the console port. Uploading router firmware via the console port under normal conditions is not recommended since FTP or TFTP is faster. Any serial communications program should work fine; however, you must use the XMODEM protocol to perform the download/upload.
