Gateways and Gatekeepers Upgrade
This chapter describes procedures for upgrading software on Cisco voice gateways and gatekeepers. It contains the following sections:
•
Determining Memory and Software Requirements
•
Verification of Gateway Upgrade
•
Verification of Gatekeeper Upgrade
Upgrade the voice gateways cautiously and methodically, completing each type of gateway before moving on to another. For example, start with the Cisco AS5300s in your network. For the first machine, perform the upgrade, then verify that it was successful. If it was, move on to the second Cisco AS5300 and repeat the upgrade and verification. After finishing all of the Cisco AS5300s, start and test them all to make sure that there are no alarms or errors.
If you are confident that the Cisco AS5300s were upgraded successfully, move on to the next type of gateway.
Note
Monitor system output frequently for error messages during the upgrade process. Correct any error messages before continuing with the upgrade.
If your solution uses Cisco Media Gateway Controller Node Manager (Cisco MNM), perform this upgrade first. Refer to the instructions in "Network Management Components Upgrade."
You also must ensure the latest Cisco MNM patches are installed before you upgrade voice gateways. Go to the Cisco Media Gateway Controller Software Center to check for new patches:
http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mgc-nm
Determining Memory and Software Requirements
The amount of memory and appropriate Cisco IOS image depend on the platform and the Cisco SS7 Interconnect solution that the voice gateway supports. To determine the latest memory and software requirements see the Solution Release Notes for Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Voice Gateways Release 2.1.
Upgrading the Gateways
You must acquire the IP address of the TFTP server from your system administrator.
The gateways that are supported in the Cisco SS7 Interconnect for Voice Gateways 2.1 solution are the Cisco AS5300, Cisco AS5350, Cisco AS5400, Cisco AS5800, and the Cisco AS5850.
Backing Up
Cisco recommends backing up all existing Cisco IOS images and configurations from privileged EXEC mode.
Step 1
Save your running-configuration to your startup configuration in NVRAM:
AS5xx0# copy running-config startup-configStep 2
Back up your existing startup configuration. Use a distinct file name for the startup configuration. This makes it easy to distinguish from other startup configurations previously saved on your TFTP server.
AS5xx0# copy startup-config tftpAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Destination filename [startup-config]? AS5xx0-startup!!3449 bytes copied in 0.136 secs
Note
Do not modify your running configuration during the Cisco IOS upgrade process.
Step 3
Determine the current Flash image and make sure there is enough memory:
AS5xx0# show flash-#- ED --type-- --crc--- -seek-- nlen -length- -----date/time------ name1 .. image AAD4004B 719C50 25 7314384 May 02 2000 13:55:04c5xx0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binStep 4
Back up the current router-shelf Cisco IOS image stored in flash memory. Use the file name obtained in Step 2.
AS5xx0# copy flash tftpSource filename []? c5xx0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Destination filename [c5xx0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin]?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!7314384 bytes copied in 218.684 secs (33552 bytes/sec)Step 5
On your TFTP server, verify that files were copied (backed up).
Upgrading the Cisco AS5300
Cisco VCWare
Cisco VCware is a software image that runs only on voice cards used in the Cisco AS5300. Because Cisco VCWare is a separate image from Cisco IOS software, it must be loaded and upgraded separately from Cisco IOS software. For all other Cisco voice gateways using C54x series DSPs, the DSPware is embedded in the Cisco IOS software image, so in those systems, Cisco VCware is not used.
Use the following command in case you need to fall back to the previous version of VCWare:
AS5300# sh vfc 1 version vcwareVoice Feature Card in Slot 1:VCware Version : 7.32ROM Monitor Version: 1.3DSPware Version : 3.4.43lTechnology : C549The output shows the current VCWare version number and density. These match the Cisco IOS image that you will download. Note the information in case you need to fall back.
Note
The Cisco AS5300 will not allow the Flash to be overwritten during normal operation. You need to configure the voice gateway to boot up from boot Flash (or ROM) so you can copy the upgraded version of Cisco IOS Software into the regular system Flash.
Blocking Call Traffic Towards the Gateway
You must block the appropriate circuits on the Cisco PGW 2200 and wait for in-progress calls to disconnect on the affected gateway. Doing so will cause the gateway to send a "resource unavailable" message to the local H.323 gatekeeper, which will then route calls only to the remaining Cisco AS5300s.
Note
The Cisco PGW 2200 PSTN Gateway (Cisco PGW 2200) was formerly called the Cisco SC2200.
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Disable the gateway register:
AS5300# config tAS5300(config)# no gatewayAS5300(config)# exitAS5300(config)# copy running-config startup-configStep 2
On the Cisco PGW 2200, identify the destination for the gateway:
mml> rtrv-dest: allStep 3
Put the NASPATH towards the gateway out of service:
mml> set-dest-state:nassrv1:oosStep 4
Verify that all of the channels associated with this gateway are blocked:
mml> rtrv-tc: all
Upgrading the Cisco IOS Software
Complete the following steps to upgrade the Cisco IOS software on a Cisco gateway:
Step 1
Verify the config register is set to 2102:
AS5300# show versionIf it is set to 2102, proceed to Step 4. If it is not, go to Step 2.
Step 2
Change the configuration register from its current setting to 0x2102 so that the Cisco AS5300 boots from boot Flash memory:
AS5300(boot)# conf termAS5300(config)# config-reg 0x2102AS5300(config)# exitAS5300# copy running-config startup-configStep 3
Determine the total amount of Flash memory available. Check the existing Cisco IOS and new Cisco IOS versions to make sure there is enough:
AS5300# sh flashStep 4
Copy the Cisco IOS software to Flash memory:
AS5300# copy tftp flashAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Source filename []? c5xx0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binErase flash: before copying? [confirm] no
CautionReplying no will keep both Cisco IOS images in Flash memory, and you would only do this if there is enough memory for both. If there is not enough Flash memory and you reply yes, fall back procedures will be different.

If you erased the old Cisco IOS image, make sure that the boot system flash oldiosname.bin command is not enabled and pointing to the old image file name; otherwise, the gateway gets stuck trying to reload the old image over and over again:
AS5300# sh runStep 6

Upgrading the Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400 Universal Gateway
Blocking Call Traffic Towards the Gateway
Complete the following steps before placing the Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400 out of service:
Step 1
Disable the gateway register:
AS5xx0# config tAS5xx0(config)# no gatewayAS5xx0(config)# exitAS5xx0# copy running-config startup-configStep 2

Cisco IOS Software
Note
Make sure you have backed up the configuration according to the "Backing Up" section of this chapter.
Complete the following steps to upgrade the Cisco IOS software on a Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400 universal gateway:
Step 1
Display the contents of Flash memory:
Router# cd flash:Router# dirDirectory of flash:/1 -rw- 9950528 Jan 01 2000 00:48:59 c5350-js-mz.121-1.XD1.bin32768000 bytes total (13041600 bytes free)Step 2
Copy the new image from the remote TFTP server into Flash memory. Make sure that you specify your own TFTP server's IP address and Cisco IOS filename. If you encounter issues with upgrading the image, be sure that you can ping the TFTP server and that appropriate directory permissions are configured on the TFTP server. To see the bangs (!) during the download operation, enable line wrap in your terminal emulation software.
Note
If you have available space for two images, leave both images in Flash memory. If necessary, you can easily revert back to the previous image. Enter the boot system flash newiosname.bin command to point to the new image filename. By default, the first image in Flash memory is loaded.
If you do not have available space, during the copy operation the system displays a message telling you to delete the current file and squeeze the flash to make room for the new image. Enter the delete flash:version command, followed by the squeeze flash command, to perform this delete-and-squeeze operation. Then proceed with the copy operation.Router# copy tftp flashAddress or name of remote host [172.22.191.135]? 172.22.191.135Source filename [c5350-js-mz.121-1.XD1.bin]? c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.binDestination filename [c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.bin]?Accessing tftp://172.22.191.135/c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.bin...Loading c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.bin from 172.22.191.135 (via FastEthernet0/0): !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![OK - 9775616/19551232 bytes]9775616 bytes copied in 66.424 secs (148115 bytes/sec)
CautionOccasionally TFTP errors occur. Make sure that the verifying checksum reports "OK." Do not reload the gateway if the checksum reports errors.
Step 3
Verify that the new image was downloaded. In this example, notice that the Cisco IOS Release 12.1(1)XD image is the first in Flash memory, so it is loaded during the boot sequence. To boot using the new image, you must either delete the unwanted image or use the boot system command to specify the alternate image to use during the boot sequence.
Router# dir flash:Directory of flash:/1 -rw- 9950528 Jan 01 2000 00:48:59 c5350-js-mz.121-1.XD1.bin2 -rw- 9775616 Jan 01 2000 00:59:10 c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.bin32768000 bytes total (13041600 bytes free)For more information on deleting the image, refer to the document Cisco IOS File System, available online at http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios113ed/113aa/113aa_2/allplats/ifs.htm
Note
The Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400, unlike the Cisco AS5200 and Cisco AS5300, use a Class A Flash File System.
Step 4
To specify the alternate image that is to be used during the boot sequence use the boot system flash newiosname.bin command to specify the location (device) and name of the image to be used:
Router(config)# boot system flash c5350-js-mz.121-3.T.binRouter(config)# ^ZRouter# copy running-config startup-configDestination filename [startup-config]?Building configuration...[OK]To verify that this command is in effect, use the show running-configuration command. Save your running configuration before the reload so that the gateway loads the correct image.
Step 5
Reload the Cisco AS5350 or Cisco AS5400 to run the new image. If you erased the old Cisco IOS image, make sure that the boot system flash oldiosname.bin command is not enabled and pointing to the old image file name; otherwise, the gateway gets stuck trying to reload the old image over and over again.

Note
Most sections of the boot sequence have been omitted from the example.
Tip
On system reload, if the console session freezes or displays unusual characters on the screen, you may have a console session mismatch between the Cisco IOS console line speed and the terminal server speed. This mismatch may occur because of the program settings of your console or your terminal server speed.
Upgrading the Cisco AS5800 or AS5850 Universal Access Server
Cisco IOS Software
A Cisco AS5800 Cisco IOS upgrade requires a compatible Cisco IOS image upgrade on both the Dial Shelf Controller (DSC) cards and Router Shelf (RS) components of the system. Two distinct upgrade procedures are necessary, one for each component.
Note
Cisco recommends upgrading the dial-shelf controller(s) first, since all upgrades are performed through the router shelf. Once DSC(s) are upgraded, the router shelf will not be able to communicate with the DSC(s) until a compatible IOS image is installed on the RS.
Note
Do not modify your running configuration during the IOS upgrade process.
Note
Upgrade verifications are performed after all necessary upgrades are complete, and all system components are reloaded.
Note
Make sure you have backed up the configuration according to the procedures in the "Backing Up" section of this chapter.
Upgrading the DSC Software
The following procedure outlines commands used to perform a Cisco 5814 Dial Shelf Controller (DSC) software upgrade from the Router Shelf.
Step 1
Login to the AS5800 Router Shelf and enter Enable (privileged exec) mode.
Step 2
Identify IOS images in the DSC bootflash:
AS5800# execute-on slot 12 sh bootflash:DA-Slot12#-#- ED --type-- --crc--- -seek-- nlen -length- -----date/time------ name1 .. image BC8CA85F 251C60 26 2169824 Nov 18 1999 22:12:15 dsc-c5800-mz.120-4.XL1.binStep 3
Delete the current IOS image(s) from bootflash:
AS5800# execute-on slot 12 del bootflash:dsc-c5800-mz.120-4.XL1.binDA-Slot12#Delete filename [dsc-c5800-mz.120-4.XL1.bin]?Delete bootflash:dsc-c5800-mz.120-4.XL1.bin? [confirm]AS5800#Step 4

Download the new DSC image from your TFTP server to the DSC flash:
Note
By default, files are copied to and from the Cisco TFTP root directory.
AS5800# copy tftp:dsc-c5800-mz.120-7.T.bin dsc12-slot0Address or name of remote host [171.71.219.167]?Source filename [dsc-c5800-mz.120-7.T.bin ]?Destination filename [dsc12-slot0]?Accessing tftp://171.71.219.167/dsc-c5800-mz.120-7.T.bin ...%Warning: File not a valid executable for this systemAbort Copy?

%Warning: File not a valid executable for this systemAbort Copy? [confirm]
Note
Do not abort the copy process. This message implies that the file being downloaded is not router shelf compatible, which is true. However, the router assumes the file being downloaded will be executed on the router shelf, when, in fact, the file is a dial shelf controller file, being downloaded to the dial shelf through the router, that will ultimately be executed on the dial shelf.
Step 9
Enter "n" to proceed with the download.
Step 10
Copy the new DSC image to the DSC bootflash:
AS5800# execute-on slot 12 copy slot0:dsc-c5800-mz.120-7.T.binbootflash:DA-Slot12#Destination filename [dsc-c5800-mz.120-7.T.bin ]?CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC2169824 bytes copied in 24.464 secs (90409 bytes/sec)Step 11
Reload the DSC to load the new image:
Router# execute-on slot 12 reloadStep 12
Repeat this procedure if you have a second DSC card to ensure both cards are running the same software release. The only change to the commands will be the slot number ("13" instead of "12").
Note
At this juncture, the DSC(s) and Router Shelf are not running the same IOS image, so you will not be able to communicate with the DSC through the Router Shelf.
Upgrading the Router Shelf Software
The following procedure outlines commands used to perform a Cisco 7206 router shelf (RS) software upgrade from the Router Shelf.
Note
Unless you installed new port adapters in the router shelf, do not upgrade the boot image. See "Upgrading the Router Shelf Boot Image".
Step 1
Identify IOS images in the RS flash:
AS5800# sh flash-#- ED --type-- --crc--- -seek-- nlen -length- -----date/time------ name1 .. image AAD4004B 719C50 25 7314384 May 02 2000 13:55:04 c5800-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin9069488 bytes available (7314512 bytes used)
Note
If you are using a larger disk storage device instead of a flash storage device, use sh disk 0 instead of sh flash to identify the IOS images in the RS flash.
Step 2
Delete images or files no longer required:
AS5800# delete slot0:c5800-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binDelete filename [c5800-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin]?Delete slot0:c5800-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin? [confirm]Step 3

Resume the Traffic Towards the Gateway
Step 1
On the Cisco PGW 2200, put the connection back in service:
mml> set-dest-state:"NASPATH":isStep 2
Do the same on the gateway:
AS5800# config tAS5800(config)# gatewayAS5800(config)# exitAS5800# copy running-config startup-config
Migrating to IUA Interfaces
To migrate the RLM interfaces on your gateway to support IUA, perform the Migrating from RLM to IUA with SCTP procedures in the Support for IUA with SCTP for Access Servers feature module.
Verification of Gateway Upgrade
Perform the following steps to verify the Router Shelf and DSC(s) are running new IOS images, and the Bootflash is running a new boot image.
Step 1
Check the Dial Shelf Controller(s) for a new IOS image:

Backing Up
Cisco 3640, Cisco 3660, and Cisco 7200 Series Configuration
Cisco recommends backing up all existing Cisco IOS images and configurations from privileged EXEC mode.
Note
Back up current Cisco IOS images (boot, router-shelf, dial-shelf) and configurations to a TFTP server before upgrading. By default, files are copied to and from the Cisco TFTP root directory.
Step 1
Save your running-configuration to your startup configuration in NVRAM:
Router# copy running-configuration start-up configuration
Note
Do not modify your running configuration during the Cisco IOS upgrade process.
Step 2
Back up your existing running configuration. Use a distinct file name for the running configuration. This makes it easy to distinguish from other running configurations previously saved on your TFTP server:
Router# copy running-config tftpAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Destination filename [running-config]? 36x0-running-config!!3312 bytes copied in 0.140 secsStep 3
Determine the contents of the Flash memory:
Router# show flash-#- ED --type-- --crc--- -seek-- nlen -length- -----date/time------ name1 .. image AAD4004B 719C50 25 7314384 May 02 2000 13:55:04c36x0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin
Back up the Cisco IOS image stored in flash memory. Use the file name obtained in Step 2. Repeat this step for every image.
c36x0# copy flash tftpSource filename []? c3640-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Destination filename [c3640-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.bin]?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!7314384 bytes copied in 218.684 secs (33552 bytes/sec)
Upgrading the Cisco IOS Software
Complete the following steps to upgrade the Cisco IOS software on a Cisco gatekeeper.
Note
If there is only one gatekeeper in your network, the entire network will be out of service while you perform the upgrade. If you have two gatekeepers in your network, make sure their priority is configured on the gateways so that when you bring down a gatekeeper, network traffic will still be in service.
Step 1
Determine the total amount of Flash memory available. Check the existing Cisco IOS and new Cisco IOS versions to make sure there is enough:
Router# sh flashStep 2
Copy the Cisco IOS software to Flash memory:
Router# copy tftp flashAddress or name of remote host []? 171.71.219.167Source filename []? c7xx0-p4-mz_120-4_XL1.binErase flash: before copying? [confirm] no
CautionReplying no will keep both Cisco IOS images in Flash memory, and you would only do this if there is enough memory for both. If there is not enough Flash memory and you reply yes, fall back procedures will be difficult.

If you erased the old Cisco IOS image, make sure that the boot system flash oldiosname.bin command is not enabled and pointing to the old image file name; otherwise, the gateway gets stuck trying to reload the old image over and over again:
Router# sh runStep 4
Reload the router:
Router# reloadProceed with reload? [confirm]System Bootstrap, Version 12.0(20000106:234457) [tombnyg-rommon_1_6 106],SOFTWARE REV 1.6Copyright (c) 1994-2000 by cisco Systems, Inc.7200 platform with 131072 Kbytes of main memorySelf decompressing the image : ###################################################################################################### [OK]Self decompressing the image : #################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### [OK]Press RETURN to get started!Step 5
Change the configuration register back to its original setting so that the gatekeeper boots from Flash. In this example, the original setting was 0x2102.
Router(boot)# configure terminalRouter(config)# config-reg 0x2102Router(config)# exitRouter(boot)#Step 6
Type no when the gatekeeper asks if you want to save the system configuration:
Step 7
Confirm the software upgrade:
Router# show version
Verification of Gatekeeper Upgrade
Step 1
Check the Router Shelf for a new IOS image:
