Mass firmware upgrade

Each device has the ability to mass firmware upgrade using OTA (Over the Air) function. The firmware can be distributed to:

...

Note
titleNOTE

Only one firmware version can be applied during one mass upgrade cycle. The uploaded firmware version will be applied only to those devices that are built on the same platform. Thus if the upgraded network includes devices on different platforms, the mass upgrade cycle should be performed for each platform.

In case the OTA function is enabled the uploaded firmware will not be applied to the device from which the upgrade is performed. It will be uploaded only to the other network devices.

Note
titleNOTE

To prevent loss of a network availability, by default the upgrade from MINT to TDMA firmware versions using the OTA function is forbidden. In order to update a network over the air, enter the "mint rf5.0 -air -swmodelcommand in the "Command Line" section of the device from which the network is updating. This command is valid for one firmware upgrade. In order to upgrade devices with different hardware platforms (for example, H11 and H08) or for the repeated uploading of the firmware version, the command will need to be entered again after the first upgrade is completed.

Mass upgrade cycle includes the following steps:

  1. Download the required firmware version from the official FTP server (ftphttps://ftp.infinetwirelessinfinet.comru).
  2. Choose the downloaded firmware file in the "Upload" section. Enable OTA function. Enable "Neighbors only" in case you want to upgrade only the neighbor devices.

Upload

The "Upload" section allows you to upload other license, firmware and configuration files to the unit.

For each of the three options, click the «Choose «Select File» button, followed by the «Upload» button after the file has been picked up.

After clicking the «Upload» button, the system performs three operations: uploading, saving and validating the new file uploaded and indicates if each of the operation succeeded or failed. In case that the process succeeded, you have to reboot the unit in order to apply the new changes.

For example, to upload the license click on the «Select File» button (1), choose appropriate file on your computer, then click the «Upload» button (2) as it is shown on the figure below.
