Procedure for downgrade from rel2.6 to rel2.5

This page is the procedure to downgrade Toolpack v2.6 system to a Toolpack v2.5 system on a TMG3200 or a TMG800 unit.

Warning: Major downgrades require service interruption.

Configure a valid DNS

vi /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 8.8.8.8 <- Should insert a valid DNS here

Download the proper v2.5 installer from TB site

1- Download installer from TB download site - http://download.telcobridges.com/ Contact TB support to get the complete link for the proper installer.

ex.  wget http://download.telcobridges.com/release2.5.142/TBToolPack-2.5.142-Linux-centos5-x86_64-Install --user xxxx --password yyyy

2- Change the permission of the installer

ex.  chmod +x TBToolPack-2.5.142-Linux-centos5-x86_64-Install

Stop Toolpack Service

skip this step if it is TMG800 since toolpack will get restart after rebooting the host tbtoolpack stop

Run Toolpack Installer (same as 2.4)

Toolpack Installer

Copy the license

If not already done with the installation copy the license in the licenses directory

[InstallDirectory]/pkg/licenses/

ex.

/lib/tb/toolpack/pkg/licenses/

Modify the host role

vi /lib/tb/toolpack/setup/12358/2.5/toolpack.ini

... TBX_GW_ADDRESS_0 = 172.31.1.2 TBX_GW_ADDRESS_1 = 172.31.1.2 TBX_PRIMARY_HOST = TRUE ...

Verify that the Toolpack service will start v2.5

Open the following file with vi.

vi /lib/tb/toolpack/setup/12358/service/config.txt

Make sure that the 'application=' line contain '2.5'.

application= /lib/tb/toolpack/setup/12358/2.5/apps/tboamapp/tboamapp_wd_cfg.ini

Copy vlan_management.rb file if using virtual IPs

Copy vlan_management.rb (if before 2.5.147) to this folder:

/lib/tb/toolpack/12358/2.5/apps/tboamapp/

Change boardmode (require for TMG800 only)

Warning: This step is important for TMG800 and it has to be done before start toolpack on rel2.5. For TMG3200, skip this step.
