DATE: 2-Feb-1999 To identify your current software load ====================================== - Obtain access to your MAX unit and make sure you are in "Full Access". - Make sure the terminal server is enabled under: Ethernet->Mod Config->Tserv Options->TS Enabled=Yes. - In the System menu, select Sys Diag, followed by Term Serv. - Under Terminal Server mode, the command "show revision" (ver 5.0 and up) will show you the correct file name you need to download. example: ascend% show revision ascend% system revision: tik.m40 6.0.0 - If the identical filename cannot be found in the ftp site, refer to the feature map below to identify the binary file that you need. File name convention ==================== - For software 4.6Cp22 and above, filenames are arranged in the format shown below: . example: rtbik.m40 - restricted load (* see version 6.0.0 note below) - support for T1 and BRI interface - support for OSPF and 56k modem - binary load for the MAX 4000 series platform - Definitions of all the file, interface, and features types are listed on later sections. * For users upgrading to version 6.0.0 or above =============================================== - Some MAX units below version 6.0.0 might need to upgrade incrementally. - Some builds contain a restricted load and an extended load. - Upload the restricted load first, reset, then upload the extended load. - For more information, refer to Upgrade-Instructions.txt. - All subsequent upgrades from version 6.0.0 or above only require an extended load without the need of a restricted load. File Types (for version 6.0.0 or above) ======================================= f Extended (full) Load - Complete version of code for production environments. r Restricted Load - Bare minimum code, only used between upgrades to 6.0.0 or higher.
