■ Named backup and restores
■ Improved Upgrade Link user interface with the following:

See “NETBuilder Upgrade Management Utilities” on page 30 for more
information and Upgrading NETBuilder Family Software for Upgrade Link
operating instructions.
Flash Load
The prior (software versions 11.0 and earlier) flash load process was limited to
formatting the on-board Flash PROM file storage and copying the bundle image to
the firmware and the NETBuilder core boot file onto the file system. With the
introduction of Web, this process needed to be modified to include flash copying
all the appropriate Web Link files as well. This feature allows for multiple file
loading support with the flash load command. This functionality is limited to the
OfficeConnect NETBuilder and SuperStack II SI NETBuilder bridge/router platforms.

capability. Telephone companies often refer to this type of call as Switched 56
Permissive. The answering device must be capable of generating the 2.1KHz tone
