MT2 stores one active and one alternate boot image.

The WallPlate software image is included with the mT2 system image. At bootup, the image is checked for current
version and any required changes. If the WallPlate image requires a reload (as during a system image upgrade), the
time to upload all 25 WallPlates is approximately 20 minutes. During the upgrade time, the WallPlates will not be
available for network activity. Currently, there are no WallPlate upgrades planned for current releases of mT2
software.

System image can be upgrade using FTP or TFTP. Commands used are:

Using FTP:

system image load ftp://username:password@ipaddress/path/t2-app.img

Using TFTP:

system image load tftp://ipaddress/path/t2-app.img

Instructions to obtain and upgrade the system image are found in the release notes of each software image.

mT2 includes Forward Error Correction in the VDSL frames. Bit errors that are not corrected are counted and
reported as a Line Quality measurement. Bit errors are averaged over 1 second of time. An SNMP trap will be sent
to the SNMP trap recipient when the threshold is crossed. The line quality status will change in the webUI and the
Command Line Interface. There are two thresholds that will be set:

Maximum threshold – the line quality status will change to Fair when the errors increase beyond the

maximum threshold
