Hello,
I just bought 100 or so Arris EMTAs (TM402P). Most of them work fine in the lab, but some of them won't take the SIP firmware. The problem is that the UpgradeServer = some wierd IP and the arrisCmDevSwAdminStatus is set to 3 (which is ignoreArrisProvisioingUpgrade). My is set to UpgradeServer = 192.168.0.12 and arrisCmDevSwAdminStatus = 2 (allowArrisProvisioningUpgrade) and UpgradeFilename = TS060172_091809_NA.MODEL_4_5.SIP.TELNET_ON.img. Did Arris burn those settings into the chips of those EMTAs so I can't upgrade it? The device took the service flows and classes I put in the config file but no the upgrade stuff!!!!
Eric
What version of firmware is on the devices that won't upgrade?
Does the docsis way of upgrading work on those modems, versus the arris method you are using?

I do not believe that they added the Arris firmware upgrade method until version 6 so you will need to use the normal docsis method to upgrade.
what is the normal Docsis method?
arrisCmDevSwAdminStatus = 2 is the Arris Proprietary method to allow upgrades from snmp/config Which they added in version 6 of their firmware I believe
docsDevSWAdminStatus = 2 is the "Standard" way to upgrade via SNMP/config the oid is .1.3.6.1.2.1.69.1.3.3 fyi
The Difference between the Two methods is that the Arris Method allows you to specify multiple firmwares/servers in a config file based on a model number/type, whereas the docsis method is limited to one firmware/server per config
If anyone needs the syntax. Here it is:
SnmpMib = docsDevSwAdminStatus.0 allowProvisioningUpgrade
SnmpMib = docsDevSwServer.0 192.168.0.12
SnmpMib = docsDevSwFilename.0 "TS060177_102309_NA.MODEL_4_5.SIP.TELNET_ON.img"
