Rolling Back a Software Update

Should you want to reload a previous software version into the BROADway system, the process is the
same as the one previously outlined, but with one exception. When FTPing the system software file to
the BROADway unit, save the file to the /VDISK folder rather than the /FLASH folder. From release
3.08 onwards, software upgrades operate out of working RAM rather than Flash memory. For example:

c:\>ftp 192.168.5.60

Connected to 192.168.5.60.

Upgrading the Boot ROM

Occasionally, system software releases will be accompanied by a firmware update to the Boot ROM on
the NSP101 module. The minimum boot ROM revision required for system release 3.08 is version 1.6.
The current revision number is available on the startup screen during the BROADway boot cycle or
through the use of the exec-sys TL1 command:

NSP1> exec-sys::nsp:1234::vers;

BROADway version: 3.04

PS version: 3.04

DATABASE version: 2.1

BSP Version : 1.60

value = 26 = 0x1a
