10 System Functions
The EFN324 software consists of the following two parts:
Program code, which can be downloaded in one combined module,
containing code for both the host and the network processor. The program
code determines how the EFN324 functions are executed. Developing new
enhanced and expanded versions of the program code is always possible.
Configuration data, containing the configuration parameters. Through
parameters some functionality may be further altered and specified without
needing to download a new program version.
10.1 Software Management
When handling versions of the program code in a CLI context, these are
referred to as ‘releases’.
EFN324 is delivered from the factory with one version of the program code
loaded. EFN324 may simultaneously host two different SW releases. One of
the releases is appointed as the ‘permanent’, in other words, the version which
is selected at restart by default. The running program is called Current
program. A new program release may be downloaded in the background while
full traffic execution is done by the current program.
