Automatic Firmware Update
The Automatic Firmware Update page allows you to configure an automatic update of the QX IP PBX’s firmware (software image) as it becomes available
on the server. When this service is enabled, on the configured day and time QX IP PBX will automatically check for a new available firmware on the server
and will either notify the administrator or update the firmware right away, depending on the configured settings.
The server configuration can be done manually.
Please Note: Independent on the selected server type, there should be an “auto-update” folder in the root directory of the server. QX IP PBX will check for
any new firmware in that specific folder only. Besides the firmware *.bin file, the “auto-update” folder should contain supplementary file(s) to point to the
correct firmware file.
The detailed instructions on the functionality of automatic firmware update as well as server configuration are described in the “Automatic Firmware
Update” document which you can find at the Epygi Web support portal.
This page consists of the following components:
