Prerequisites:
Master build 300 or greater. (see Programming Information)

Changes in this release

  • Added support for device TCP/IP address hot-swap to support MVP-9000i
  • Added support for expedited OFFLINE/ONLINE cycle to support MVP-9000i
  • Closed VxWorks WDB security hole by removing the WDB agent from the VxWorks kernel. Under the previous firmware versions, the security hole was only exposed when the master had a static IP address. (US-CERT VU#362332)

Known Issues
None

Programming Information
If you currently have a firmware build less than 300, to upgrade to this version (or greater) the upgrade requires the following process:
  1. Download kit with build 300 (or greater) - Download of last component will fail
  2. Reboot master
  3. Wait until you have connectivity to the master or you have a blinking AxLink status LED. This may take a couple of minutes
  4. Download kit with build 300 (or greater) again - Download should pass
  5. Reboot master
  6. Please wait. This will take a few minutes for file extraction and key SSH generation. When you have connectivity to the master or the AxLink LED is blinking the master is ready
