10.3 BootP Support
10.3.1 Upgrading the MP-1xx
When upgrading the MP-1xx (loading new software onto the gateway) using the BootP/TFTP
configuration utility:
• From version 4.2 to version 4.4, the device loses its configuration. Therefore, to retain the
previous gateway configuration you must save the ini file before you replace the cmp file,
and reload it to the device. For information on backing up and restoring the gateway’s
configuration refer to Section
5.9.2.1 on page 120.
• From version 4.4 to version 4.4 or to any higher version, the device retains its configuration
(ini file), however, the auxiliary files (CPT, logo, etc.) may be erased.
When using the Software Upgrade wizard, available through the Web Interface (refer to Section
5.11.1 on page 131), the auxiliary files are saved as well.
Note: To save the cmp file to non-volatile memory, use the -fb command line switches. If the file
is not saved, the gateway reverts to the old version of software after the next reset. For
information on using command line switches, refer to Section
B.11.6 on page 206.
10.3.2 Vendor Specific Information Field
The MP-1xx uses the vendor specific information field in the BootP request to provide device-
related initial startup information. The BootP/TFTP configuration utility displays this information in
the ‘Client Info’ column (refer to Figure B-1).
Note: This option is not available on DHCP servers.
The Vendor Specific Information field is disabled by default. To enable / disable this feature: set
the ini file parameter ‘ExtBootPReqEnable’ (Table 5-29 on page 108) or use the ‘-be’ command
line switch (refer to Table B-1 on page 206).
Table 10-1 details the vendor specific information field according to device types:
