This section describes how to upgrade the software on your Campus-REX2.  
To upgrade, you will use FTP on your Windows- or Unix/Linux-based PC to 
transfer the new software to the Campus-REX2.  A file containing the new 
software is supplied with the name carex2_Vx.y.tar, where x.y is the software 
release version.  When you upgrade software, the configured parameters for 
HDSL, system, and REX2 are not affect by the upgrade.
Prior to updating software, ensure the following has been completed:
The Campus-REX2 is configured with a LAN IP address (see 
.)
You can successfully 'ping' the configured LAN IP address of the 
Campus-REX2.
You have access to the file containing the upgrade software 
(carex2_Vx.y.tar) from the PC that you used to perform the 'ping'.
Do not remove power to the Campus unit or disconnect the 
Line and LAN side network connections when upgrading 
software or saving configuration.
