4.13.2 Configuration Update from Portable Media
The procedure for a configuration update from a CD or USB device using MML is as follows:
1. You should enter:
CNUPI:DTYPE=CONFIG, DIRECTORY=<subdirectory>,FILE=<filename>;
to request that the configuration file be updated from CD or USB.
Note: The directory and filename are optional and when not used the system looks for the SDC.CF3 file
in the CD or USB root directory.
The configuration file is uploaded from CD or USB. The unit indicates that the configuration has been
successfully updated by displaying the “EXECUTED” response to the CNUPI command.
Following updates, the CD will be ejected from the CD-ROM drive to prevent updates being overwritten
on subsequent restarts.
2. You should then restart the system by entering the MML command MNRSI.
4.13.3 Configuration Update from Startup
You is also able to install a previously backed-up system configuration from system start.
Note: Installation of configuration from system start is not normal operating procedure and should only
be used if you are unable to install configuration via MML. A failed installation of configuration
from system start can result in the complete loss of system configuration.
The procedures to install configuration from system start using either FTP or CD are described below.
Configuration Update from Startup using FTP
1. Rename the binary configuration file to SDC.CF3.
2. Establish an FTP session (see Section 4.9, “FTP Access” on page 30).
3. Set the FTP transfer mode to “Binary”, since the configuration file is a binary file.
4. Transfer the configuration to the Signaling Gateway by entering the command “put SDC.CF3 SDC.CF3”.
Note: The Signaling Gateway uses a case-sensitive file system. Therefore, it is necessary to specify
SDC.CF3 in uppercase.
5. Terminate the FTP session by entering “quit” or “bye”.
6. Establish an MML session and restart the unit by typing the MNRSI command.
The machine then boots and completes the upgrade. Once the upgrade is complete, the machine is
accessible via the MML.
Configuration Update from Startup using CD or USB
1. Insert the CD or USB containing the configuration file SDC.CF3 into the Signaling Server.
2. Restart the system.
The new configuration is installed and started automatically.
