Firmware upgrade
The management agent supports application firmware upgrade using the web-based
interface.
PTP 250 firmware images are digitally signed, and the ODU will accept only images that
contain a valid Motorola PTP digital signature. The ODU always requires a reboot to
complete a firmware upgrade.
Obtain the application firmware and this user guide from the support website
(http://www.motorola.com/ptp/support
) BEFORE warranty expires.
ODU firmware version must be the same at both ends of the link. Limited operation may
sometimes be possible with dissimilar firmware versions, but such operation is not
supported by Motorola.
The procedure for firmware upgrade is described in Upgrading firmware version on page
6-10.
Reset to factory defaults
The ‘reset to factory defaults’ feature provides a means to recover from serious
configuration errors, such as lost or forgotten passwords.
Use the reset plug (supplied in each PTP 250 ‘Link Complete’ or ‘End Complete’ kit) to
reset the unit to factory default configuration, including reset of the country that was
selected at first login. Following the procedure in Resetting to default configuration (with
country reset) on

Use t
he Save & Restore page to reset the unit to factory default configuration, without
resetting the country that was selected at first login. Follow the procedure in Resetting to
def
ault configuration (without country reset) on page 7-25.
