Administrator account privilege is needed for these functions.

Upgrade URL

The Upgrade URL lets you upgrade the SPA9000 to the firmware specified by the URL, which can
identify either a TFTP or HTTP server.

Note

If the value of the <Upgrade Enable> parameter in the Provisioning page is No, you cannot upgrade the
SPA9000 even if the web page indicates otherwise.

The syntax of the Upgrade URL is as follows:

•

http://spa-ip-addr/admin/upgrade?[protocol://][server-name[:port]][/firmware-pathname]

Both HTTP and TFTP are supported for the upgrade operation.

If no protocol is specified, TFTP is assumed. If no server-name is specified, the host that requests the
URL is used as server-name.

If no port specified, the default port of the protocol is used. (69 for TFTP or 80 for HTTP)

The firmware-pathname is typically the file name of the binary located in a directory on the TFTP or
HTTP server. If no firmware-pathname is specified, /spa.bin is assumed, as in the following example:

http://192.168.2.217/admin/upgrade?tftp://192.168.2.251/spa.bin

Resync URL

The Resync URL lets you force the SPA9000 to do a resync to a profile specified in the URL, which can
identify either a TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server.

Note

The SPA resyncs only when it is idle.

The syntax of the Resync URL is as follows:

http://spa-ip-addr/admin/resync?[[protocol://][server-name[:port]]/profile-pathname]

If no parameter follows /resync?, the Profile Rule setting from the Provisioning page is used.

If no protocol is specified, TFTP is assumed. If no server-name is specified, the host that requests the
URL is used as server-name.

If no port is specified, the default port is used (69 for TFTP, 80 for HTTP, and 443 for HTTPS).

The profile-path is the path to the new profile with which to resync, for example:

http://192.168.2.217admin/resync?tftp://192.168.2.251/spaconf.cfg

Reboot URL

The Reboot URL lets you reboot the SPA9000.
