Chapter 3 Installing the TBC1-1VDSL2-1 expansion card
This chapter provides information on how to install and uninstall the TBC1-1VDSL2-1 expansion card in bintec
RM3000 / RM5000 / RM7000 routers.
This information includes:
• Requirements prior to installation.
• Installing or replacing a TBC1-1VDSL2-1 expansion card.
3.1 Requirements prior to installation
To configure the card, you must be able to access the bintec RM3000 / RM5000 / RM7000 router through a console
or a Telnet connection. For further information, please see the Connecting for configuration section under the bintec
Dm569-I bintec RM3000 Installation manual.
For the TBC1-1VDSL2-1 expansion cards to operate properly, you must load the appropriate firmware file for each
card in the router.
If the firmware has not been loaded in the device prior to installing the card, you can still find out what firmware file
you need.
3.1.1 Determining the firmware file
There are two options to determine the firmware file needed for the installed xDSL card:
3.1.1.1 FTP " quote site listfirmwares" command
The FTP command quote site listfirmwares returns a list containing the names of the firmware files needed for the
device to operate properly:
ftp> quote site listfirmwares
211 fw000016.bfw
ftp>
3.1.1.2 FTP "system firmwares-required" Monitoring command
The system firmwares-required monitoring command displays the same information as the previous command, but
in the local console:
+system firmwares-required
List of required firmwares for detected hardware
------------------------------------------------
Filename Description Version/Subv
------------- ---------------------------- ---------------
fw000016.bfw Lantiq VRX288 TSS-mode v1.0
+
Once the necessary firmware file has been detected, load it onto the device through an FTP connection.
For further information on how to load firmware files in the router, please see the bintec Dm 748-I Software Updating
manual.
