5.8 Software Update Menu
The ‘Software Update’ menu enables users to upgrade the gateway's software by loading a
new cmp file along with the ini and a suite of auxiliary files, or to update the existing
auxiliary files.
The ‘Software Update’ menu comprises two submenus:
 Software Upgrade Wizard (refer to Section 5.8.1 below).
 Auxiliary Files (refer to Section 5.8.2 on page 119).
Note: When upgrading the gateway's software you must load the new cmp file
with all other related configuration files
5.8.1 Software Upgrade Wizard
The Software Upgrade Wizard guides users through the process of software upgrade:
selecting files and loading them to the gateway. The wizard also enables users to upgrade
software while maintaining the existing configuration. Using the wizard obligates users to
load and burn a cmp file. Users can choose to also use the wizard to load the ini and
auxiliary files (e.g., Call Progress Tones) but this option cannot be pursued without loading
the cmp file. For the ini and each auxiliary file type, users can choose to reload an existing
file, load a new file or not load a file at all.
The Software Upgrade Wizard allows you to load the following files:
 cmp (mandatory)
 ini
 Auxiliary files:
• CPT (Call Progress Tone)
• VP (Voice Prompts)
• PRT (Prerecorded Tones)
• CAS
• USRINF (User Info)
Warning 1: The Software Upgrade Wizard requires the gateway to be reset at
the end of the process, disrupting any of its traffic. To avoid
disruption, disable all traffic by performing a graceful lock (refer to
Section 5.9.1 on page 122) on the gateway before initiating the
Wizard..
Warning 2: Verify, prior to clicking the Start Software Upgrade button that no
traffic is running on the device. After clicking this button a device
reset is mandatory. Even if you choose to cancel the process in the
middle, the device resets itself and the previous configuration burned
to flash is reloaded.
