3-38 Motorola RF Switch System Reference
3.6 Configuring Automatic Updates
Use the Automatic Updates screen to enable a facility that will poll a server address (you designate) when
the switch is booted. If updates are found since the last time the switch was booted, the updated version is
uploaded to the switch the next time the switch is booted. Enable this option for either the firmware,
configuration file, or cluster configuration file. Motorola recommends leaving this setting disabled if a review
of a new file is required before it is automatically uploaded by the switch.
To enable and configure the automatic update feature for switch firmware, configuration files, and cluster
configurations:
1. Select Switch > Automatic Updates from the main menu tree.
2. Refer to the Switch Configuration field to enable and define the configuration for automatic
configuration file updates. If enabled, the located (updated) configuration file will be used with the
switch the next time the switch boots.
Enable Select the Enable checkbox to allow an automatic configuration file update when
a newer (updated) file is detected (upon the boot of the switch) at the specified IP
address.
IP Address Define the IP address of the server where the configuration files reside. If a new
version is detected when the switch is booted, it is uploaded to the switch and
used upon the next boot of the switch.
User ID Enter the User ID required to access the FTP or TFTP server.
File Name (With
Path)
Provide the complete and accurate path to the location of the configuration files
on the server. This path must be accurate to ensure that the most recent file is
retrieved.
