Setup guide
Adding Software Packages
Description
The basic installation comes only with the system package. This includes basic IP routing and
router administration. To have additional features such as IP Telephony, OSPF, wireless and so on,
you will need to download additional software packages.
The additional software packages should have the same version as the system package. If not, the
package won't be installed. Please consult the Wandy RouterOS Software Package Installation
and Upgrading Manual for more detailed information about installing additional software packages.
To upgrade the router packages, simply upload the packages to the router via ftp, using the binary
transfer mode. After you have uploaded the packages, reboot the router, and the features that are
provided by those packages will be available (regarding your license type, of course).
