Download Code
Download Code Menu Option
The Download Code menu option (
A-F
) allows you to upgrade your software with a
new version of code, then apply this code to your system.
New firmware releases are typically applied to the MCC card, DSL cards, and/or
endpoints in your system.
When a software upgrade affects both the MCC and all DSL cards, you must
download and apply a new version of code into each of the DSL cards
before
you
download and apply a new version of code into the MCC. However if you are
upgrading from MVL to ReachDSL, you must ensure that the MCC card is at a
minimum revision level of 04.01.16 before you upgrade the MVL card to
ReachDSL.
When you are downloading code to an endpoint, configure your TFTP server with
the following timeout values:
Retransmission timeout
– Value not less than 10 seconds.
Total transmission
– Value not less than three times the retransmission
timeout.
You can also use the above values for a standard TFTP transfer.
