You can download firmware to multiple stations of the same type, either 2410, 2420, 1408, or 1416 DCP telephone. Download firmware to as many as 1000 stations per download schedule. You can schedule a specific time for the download, or you can administer the download to run immediately. To download 2410, 2420, 1408, or 1416 DCP station firmware to multiple stations:
Procedure
Type change firmware station-download.
Press Enter.
The system displays the Firmware Station Download screen.
In the Schedule Download field, type y.
The Start Date/Time and Stop Date/Time fields appear.
In the Start Date/Time field, enter the month (mm), day (dd), year (yyyy), and time (hh:mm) that you want the download to start.
In the Stop Date/Time field, enter the month (mm), day (dd), year (yyyy), and time (hh:mm) that you want the download to stop.
In the Continue Daily Until Completed field, enter y if you want the system to execute the firmware download each day at the scheduled time until all specified telephones have received the firmware.
In the Beginning Station field, enter the first extension number in the range of telephones to which you want to download the firmware.
Up to 1000 stations can be included in a scheduled download.
In the Ending Station field, enter the last extension number in the range of telephones to which you want to download firmware.
Up to 1000 stations can be included in a scheduled download.
Note:
Although you can specify a range of up to 1000 extensions, all 1000 stations are not downloaded simultaneously because there is a limit of how many concurrent telephones will be downloaded on a board, gateway, and port network. These limits will likely result in multiple "passes" required to attempt a download to the telephone. Also note that on the first "pass", only two telephones will be attempted, and if multiple telephones fail, then the schedule may stop.
Press Enter.
The firmware download is set to run at the scheduled time. If you entered n in the Schedule Download? field, pressing Enter immediately initiates the download to the specified range of telephones.
