Upgrade options: In contrast to the Activate software dialog, the software selection dialog
handles base software versions and network options separately. As a
consequence, different versions of the base software can be combined with
different options to create new firmware configurations. For example, it is
possible to update the base software without affecting the associated
network options or vice versa. Moreover, the same base software version
can be installed several times and combined with different network options
(and vice versa), so it may enter into several firmware configurations. The
following simple rules apply:
• With a new version of a network option, it is only possible to update one
of the existing configurations. The following selection dialog is
automatically skipped.
• With a new base software version, it is possible to either update an
existing configuration or create a new one. A dialog selecting between
the two alternatives is opened:
