Currently, the admin user has full control over all configuration and monitoring functions of the management
system. In some future release, the management may be divided between different access levels and users will be
assigned a level appropriate to their level of authority in the management scheme. For now, at least set a good
password to protect Telnet and Web access of the GSW against unauthorized personnel.
2.2.6 Upgrading the GSW/SNMP
The GSW/SNMP and any cards, including any remotely connected (over fiber) in-band managed converters,
are all capable of online software upgrade.
We recommend doing upgrade through the Web GUI. The image is then transferred via HTTP easily, so no
TFTP server is required. Please refer to Chapter 3.
Note: When CTC Union releases an update, a 'package' will be generated that includes all required code, the
TFTP server application, a detailed upgrade procedure in PDF format specifically for the release and a release
notice listing the fixes or added features of the firmware. Latest packages may be found on our support Web site
(http://support.ctcu.com/) and are available to registered members (registration is free).
This completes the basic chassis provisioning for the FRM220A 2U 20 slot Ethernet Platform Media Converter
Rack through Telnet console. You will find provisioning and use of the web interface in the next chapter, Chapter 3.
Specific configuration for line cards are located in the Appendix, starting with the first release line card, the
FRM220A-nE1/ET100 Inverse Multiplexer.
