Retrieving the new software
For Version 4.80 and later, the VPN Router release image is available in a
compressed .zip file so that each individual file does not download separately. The
VPN Router decompresses the image as it retrieves it. You must then apply the
new image.
To use the compressed zip file:
1 Place the zip file (for example, V04_80.114.tar.gz) on the FTP server that you
are using for the upgrade.
D:\ftp>dir
Volume in drive D has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 9B29-6769
Directory of D:\ftp

06/18/2003 06:53a 31,779,808 V04_80.069.tar.gz
2 Select Admin > Upgrades.
3 Fill in the following fields on the Upgrades window:
• Host: type the IP address or the name of the machine where the new
software is located.
• Path: type the directory path location of the new software. The path value
is the relative location of the .gz file from the FTP root in the directory. In
the example below, the V04_80.069.tar.gz file is located at the root of the
FTP directory.
• Version: type the exact name of the code that you are upgrading to (for
example, V04_80.114).
Note: Do not attempt to create your own zip archive. Use the .tar.gz file
distributed by Nortel.
