MP-1xx SIP User’s Manual 5. Configuring the MP-1xx
Version 4.4 131 March 2005
5.11 Software Update
The ‘Software Update’ menu enables users to upgrade the MP-1xx software by loading a new
cmp file along with the ini and a suite of auxiliary files, or to update the existing auxiliary files.
The ‘Software Update’ menu comprises two submenus:
• Software Update Wizard (refer to Section
5.11.1 below).
• Auxiliary Files (refer to Section
5.11.2 on page 137).
Note: When upgrading the MP-1xx software you must load the new cmp file with
all other related configuration files.
5.11.1 Software Upgrade Wizard
The Software Upgrade Wizard guides users through the process of software upgrade: selecting
files and loading them to the gateway. The wizard also enables users to upgrade software while
maintaining the existing configuration. Using the wizard obligates users to load a cmp file. Users
can choose to also use the Wizard to load the ini and auxiliary files (e.g., Call Progress Tones)
but this option cannot be pursued without loading the cmp file. For the ini and each auxiliary file
type, users can choose to reload an existing file, load a new file or not load a file at all.
Note: The Software Upgrade Wizard requires the MP-1xx to be reset at the end of
the process, disrupting any of its traffic. To avoid disruption, disable all traffic
on the MP-1xx before initiating the Wizard.
To use the Software Upgrade Wizard, take these 9 steps:
1. Stop all traffic on the MP-1xx (refer to the note above).
2. Open the ‘Software Upgrade Wizard’ (Software Update menu > Software Upgrade
Wizard); the ‘Start Software Upgrade’ screen appears.
