PHASE :1

The main purpose is to have the ability to create E-TREE services for aggregation sites , for

the 1819 SYNC service.

This will enable the aggregation port (UNI-SYNC port) to send the same v-lan 1819 to

multipoints ( UNI and NNI ports) E-tree services are point-to-multipoint services that are

used to provide IPTV and similar multicast services

The Hub must have the 5.0 software for the above to be possible, please the procedure

below if hub is not upgraded.

Upgrading Procedure

Step Task Command

1

Select one user of the FTP

server and copy the new

system software image

directly from the CD to the

FTP home directory of the

user.

If this is not possible, copy

the system software image

from the CD to a directory

from which the FTP serverallows file transfers

2

Verify that the FTP server

software is running on the

host computer and that the

correct software file is loaded

3Log in to the device

connecting by telnet

4

Download the software onto

the FPH x200 device.

ftp get image server-ip filename

login password

[account ] [cd-dir ]

all the command in a single line where:

The IP address of the FTP server in the

format A.B.C.D.

The name of the software image file on

the remote server. The file name can

contain up to 50 characters.


4/15


The login name for the FTP server. The

login name can contain up to 30

Download the software to

the inactive image bank.

Type y when you are prompted to confirm the download.

The system will download the software file and unpack it into

the inactive image bank

This could take some minutes, depending of the load of the

network between the FTP server and the FPH A2200

6

Verify that the inactive bank

contains the new software

version.

show image command

8Toggle the active software

password root

Example ofshow image command output:

This example shows software version 4.5.23.2 in the active image bank and software version

4.5.23.3 in the inactive image bank:

A-2200>showimage

BANK A BANK B

------------ ------------ ------------

Status Active Inactive

4.5.23.3 5.0.10.09
