Updated firmware can be downloaded to up to 1000 Avaya DCP stations. This eliminates the need to use a feature access code (FAC) to perform the firmware update for each station. To download firmware to these stations, Communication Manager requires:
The high-level process for downloading the firmware is to:
Downloading the firmware image
Reading the image into memory
Scheduling the download
The target stations are automatically taken out of service before the firmware is downloaded to them and automatically returned to service after the download is completed. Once a download has started, the station cannot be used until the download completes. If a station is in use at the time that it is scheduled to be downloaded, the download to that station will be aborted and the call will not be affected. The status firmware station-download command and the error log will provide information on aborted downloads.
