Restoring, upgrading and rebooting
This section describes how to restore the system configuration, upgrade the software and
reboot the unit.
This section contains the following procedures:
•
Restoring the system configuration on page 7-67
•
Upgrading software on page 7-68
•
•
Upgrading software in an operational 1+1 Hot Standby link
•
Restoring the system configuration
Perform this procedure to restore a PTP 800 CMU to a previously saved configuration.
Refer to
Saving the system configuration
on page
for instructions on when and how
to save the configuration.
The restore is only guaranteed to work if the installed software version has not been
changed since the configuration file was saved. This is why the configuration should
always be saved immediately after upgrading the software version.
Licensed capabilities
The license key is restored automatically if the configuration file is saved and then loaded
on the same unit. However, the license key is not restored if the configuration file is loaded
on a different unit. Before restoring configuration to a different PTP 800 unit, ensure that
a valid license key is installed (with optional capabilities enabled where appropriate). For
instructions, see
Task 3: Installing license keys
Restoring from the configuration file
To restore the system configuration from file, select menu option
Configuration, Save
And Restore
. The Save & Restore Configuration page is displayed (
). Select
Browse
and navigate to the PC folder containing the saved configuration file (.cfg). Select
Restore Configuration File and Reboot
. Select
OK
to confirm the restore. The
configuration file is uploaded and used to reconfigure the new unit to the same state as the
old unit. On completion, the unit reboots.
