Updating
Updating is done in the following steps:
1. Open the System: Firmware page in the Configurator. Click
on the Save button to create a backup copy of the existing
configuration. Then click on the Next button.
2. Click on the Browse button. Select the firmware file. Click on
the Load button.
This process loads the firmware file to the communications
system. After loading, the communications system re-starts.
Then the existing configuration is converted. This process can
take up to 20 minutes depending on how much configuration
data is involved.
3. Then open the System: Components page. Select the
Firmware Addons entry from the selections offered. Take
note of the expected file name displayed. Load the firmware
extensions with the Browse and Load buttons.
4. Optional: Then open the System: Licences page. Enter the
authorisation key for the update. Then a green tick mark
should appear next to the Forum Upgrade entry in the Status
column.
After updating, as needed, you can also load the online help file
and the audio files for the additional programs Forum Voicemail
und Forum Auto Attendant.
If you have been operating external SIP lines with customer-spe-
cific settings, you may have to adjust these settings to the
extended SIP provider settings of release 7 (see online help topics
“SIP Trunks”, “SIP Provider” and “Notes on SIP Providers”).
Note: Please also note the information on updating telephony
functions (see Information on the Update starting on page 173).
