3. Access the Canoga Perkins Web site, click Downloads, scroll to the 2345 filename, and compare

the version number listed there with the version numbers you recorded. The 2345 firmware file
name is similar to

23450106.zip

, where "2345" indicates the module and "0106" indicates the

version.

Caution:

To insure compatibility when a system includes two or more of the same module, you
must upgrade all those modules with the same software.

If the firmware for the 2345 is outdated, you need to upgrade it. To start the software upgrade, follow
these steps:

1. Go to the Host Access Table (see page 3-11) and verify that the entry for the host you will use for

the file transfer allows FTP or SFTP access, depending on the method you plan to use.

2. Log in to the FTP or SFTP server from the account that allows access.

Note: You can run only one FTP or SFTP session at a time.

3. Download the new firmware from the Canoga Perkins web site to your TFTP server; put the

firmware in the "

/BURNING

" directory. For FTP, enable binary transfer mode. When the transfer

is complete, the file is moved automatically to the "

/INACTIVE

" directory.

4. At the Main Menu, type 7, Upgrade Software, and press <Enter>.

5. At the Software Upgrade menu, type 3, Get New File with TFTP, and press <Enter>.

6. Follow the prompts on the screen to enter the IP address for the TFTP server and the file name for

the new firmware, then start the upgrade.

7. When the file transfer is complete:

a. At the Software Upgrade menu, type 2, Swap Bank, and press <Enter>.

b. Type

1

, Software Reset, and press <Enter>. The 2345 resets and starts using the new

firmware.

8. To update a remote partner, type 4, Copy Software from Source modem to Destination modem,

and press <Enter>. The 2345 writes the software to the remote partner, which then resets and
starts using the new firmware.

Manage Security

To provide system security, the 2345 includes username and password access, as well as SNMP with
Read and write communities and a Host table. To set up values for various security parameters on
your 2345, you must typically have supervisor access.
