12.3.1.1 Prepare DECT 800 hardware
*All DECT base stations must be connected to your LAN and switched on.
*The DECT base station that you want to provide as the master base station must have Ascom AG firmware 11.4.4 or higher.
* 
If you are already operating a manually configured DECT system in your network that is to be kept in service, you must also update its base stations to firmware 11.4.4 or higher.
When the new system is being provisioned, the already configured base stations remain assigned to the existing DECT system and are not automatically assigned to the new system.
 
* 
If your DECT base stations are still operating with an older firmware version, you must update them manually.
You must also update the bootloader manually on the master base station.

*A factory reset must be carried out on the DECT base station that you want to provide as the master, see 12.3.3 Performing a factory reset on the DECT 800
