Identify Voice Cards

Use the following steps to identify the voice cards in the system and determine whether the VFC is

in VCWare mode or ROM monitor mode. This determines how you download software to the VFC.

If there is not VCWare loaded on the VFC, you can use the ROM monitor mode to download the

VCWare. Otherwise the VCWare mode is active.

Go to one of the following sections to continue the procedure to upgrade the VCWare:

• “Replace Firmware with VCWare in VCWare Mode,” if your voice card is running in VCWare

mode

• “Replace Firmware with VCWare in ROM Monitor Mode,” if your voice card is running in ROM

monitor mode.

Replace Firmware with VCWare in VCWare Mode

Conﬁgure

Use the steps that follow to download new voice software if your voice card is running in VCWare

mode. When downloading from a diskette, ﬁrst copy the software from the diskette to a TFTP server.

After the software is on the TFTP server, begin the following steps.

Determine the number of voice cards in the

system, the slot number for each card, and the

VFC mode (VCWare or ROM monitor) in

which you are running.

The VFC mode is indicated as follows:

• VCWARE running for VCWare mode

• ROMMON for ROM monitor mode

Note the location and the mode type for each

voice card. You will need this information

when you upgrade the VCWare.
