Modem Upgrades
This section describes basic debugging and modem commands used for upgrading modem module
firmware as well as modem activation considerations. The show modem version command output is
displayed to verify a successful download.
Debugging a Modem
Use the following commands for debugging a modem or group of modems.
From the Cisco IOS privileged mode
AS5800-1# .
Debug a modems out-of-band port that is used to poll modem events.
debug modem oob shelf/slot/port group group_number
Debug a call-switching module that is used to connect calls.
debug csm shelf/slot/port group group_number
Debug the call trace, which determines why calls are terminated. Use this keyword only with
manageable modems. Upload the call trace on normal, abnormal, or all call terminations.
debug modem trace {normal | abnormal | all} shelf/slot/port group group_number
Upgrading Modem Firmware
Each modem card installed in your Cisco AS5800 access server contains 12 MICA modems, each with
six modem SIMMs. This allows you to upgrade firmware for each group of six modem SIMMs.
The default firmware image is loaded on the modem card during system boot-up. Normally, you do not
need to change the firmware image; however, you can override the default image with another firmware
image.
A valid pool range must exist (that is, the pool-range modem pool configuration command must have
been configured) for modem overrides to occur. Modem pooling allows you to define, select, and use
separate modem pools within a single access server or router to enable different dial-in services for
different customers. In this case, the modem pool specifies which modems are loaded with the new
firmware image.
The specified firmware image is loaded on every modem for every slot specified in the pool range. If the
modem is busy, the firmware change is deferred until the modem is available. When the modem is
available, the firmware change takes place immediately.If you specify a firmware image that does not
exist, the information is stored so that, in the event that the modem card is updated with that firmware
image, it will be loaded when the modem card image boots.
At boot-up time, the default firmware image is loaded first. If there is a firmware image specified by the
firmware command, it is then loaded onto the modem card.
Table 6-2 lists modem firmware upgrade commands to override the default modem firmware image with
another specified firmware image.
