backup purposes. By default, Optimux-108 is delivered with the active software
only.
New software releases are distributed as an *.img file, which is downloaded to
the local Optimux-108 using the TFTP or XMODEM protocol. Upon downloading,
the new software release becomes active, the former active software turns into
backup, and the former backup is erased.
If a failure occurs during downloading or decompression, the new version is
erased from the flash and the backup version becomes active. In this case, only
one version is left stored in the flash memory. If the active software becomes
corrupted, you can replace it with its backup.
This procedure is used to replace the current software version with the new
software release (OP-106.img).
