Network element software updates
Administrators can update the software for network elements. The current
configuration data is automatically transferred to the updated version, with the
exception of any modified engineering parameters. Engineering parameters are
configured to factory defaults during a software update. The update can be an
upgrade to a new version or a downgrade to a previous software version.
The service impacts of updating network element software vary, depending on the
network element involved and the system architecture. For more details, see the
individual network element and upgrade guides.
