In addtion Pirelli modified +the Broadcom code, so Alice Gate models use a different imagetag than any +other vendor. + +The imagetag format for flashing via CFE is the same for almost all the +boards, and is the same for all images generated by the imagetag utility. +Images flashable using cfe are labelled openwrt-<board>-<filesystem>-cfe.bin + +The imagetags for tftp/ftp flashing is based on Broadcom 3.00-3.04 imagetags +and is known to be correct as the source code GPL and is available for reading. + +Broadcom code 2.21 is based on the BT Voyager firmware image I looked at. It +may in fact be BT Voyager-specific. 2.21 is actually more difficult to deal +with the imagetag from 3.00 as it has three different CRC calculations in +addtition to the header CRC. + +Broadcom 3.00-3.02 flashing has been tested on Comtrend CT-5261, CT-536 and +Tecom GW6000, and is the version of the flashing that was present before the +imagetags were split by broadcom code version (early June 2009) + +3.04 is guessed to be the same as 3.00-3.02 based on available information + +Broadom 3.06 is thought to be the same as 3.00-3.02, however the only 3.06 +this author (Daniel Dickinson) has seen is the Alice Gate (Pirelli) firmware +which is known to be different due to vendor (Pirelli) modifications to the +Broadcom code. + +Broadcom 3.10 uses an imagetag that is believed to apply to all 3.10 and 3.12 +versions, and has been tested on the Tecom GW6200. This version introdec changes to +the imagetag to deal with TR69 (a remote rouer management system developed by the +DSL forum). There is a field for vendor-specific information, that at least in some +cases is not optional. It is based on the hexedit of a neufbox4 firmware image, the +information in https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/4987, and the hexedit of a Tecom +GW6200 image. + +Some boards share the same tag format, but require vendor-specific fields in +the board. In that case the tagid is shared, but the filename of the generated +image reflects the router for which the image was created. + +router |method | codever |filename ++-------------+-------------+---------+--------------------------------------- +|any |cfe+most web | any |openwrt-<board>-<fs>-cfe.bin +|AGVoIP2+WiFi |cfe |alice3.06|openwrt-AGV2+W-cfe-<fs>-cfe.bin +|AGVoIP2+WiFi |web |alice3.06|openwrt-AGV2+W-cfe-<fs>-cfe.bin +|CT536 |web |3.02 |openwrt-CT536_CT5621-<fs>-cfe.bin +|CT5621 |web |3.02 |openwrt-CT536_CT5621-<fs>-cfe.bin +|DG834GT |web |3.02 |openwrt-DG834GT_DG834PN-<fs>-cfe.bin +|DG834PN |web |3.02 |openwrt-DG834GT_DG834PN-<fs>-cfe.bin +|DSL-2640B |web |3.10 |openwrt-DSL2640B-<fs>-cfe.bin +|DSL-2740B |web |3.10 |openwrt-DSL2670B-<fs>-cfe.bin +|F5D7633 |web |3.10 |openwrt-F5D7633-<fs>-cfe.bin +|F@ST2404 |web |3.0X? |openwrt-F@ST2404-cfe-<fs>-cfe.bin +|F@ST2404 |web |3.1X? |openwrt-F@ST2404-<fs>-cfe.bin +|GW6000 |web |3.00 |openwrt-GW6000-<fs>-cfe.bin +|GW6200 |web |3.10 |openwrt-GW6200-<fs>-cfe.bin +|Neufbox4 |web |3.12 |openwrt-NEUFBOX4-<fs>-cfe.bin +|TD8810A |web |3.06 |openwrt-TD8810-<fs>-cfe.bin +|TD8810B |web |3.06 |openwrt-TD8810-<fs>-cfe.bin +|TD8811A |web |3.06 |openwrt-TD8811-<fs>-cfe.bin +|TD8811B |web |3.06 |openwrt-TD881-<fs>-cfe.bin +|TD8900GB |web |3.06 |openwrt-TD8900DB<fs>-cfe.bin +|USR9108 |web |3.0X? |openwrt-USR9108-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2091_BTR |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2091_BTR-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2091_ROI |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2091-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2091_WB |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2091-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V210_BTR |web |2.21 |openwrt-V210_BTR-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V210_ROI |web |2.21 |openwrt-V210-ROI_WB<fs>-cfe.bin +|V210_WB |web |2.21 |openwrt-V210-ROI_WB<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2110 |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2110-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2110_AA |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2110-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2110_ROI |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2110-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2500V |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2500V<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2500V_AA |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2500V-<fs>-cfe.bin +|V2500V_SIP_CLUB |web |2.21 |openwrt-V2500V-<fs>-cfe.bin + +Old imagetag routers +-------------------- +Davolink DV201AMR + +Redboot routers +--------------- +Inventel Livebox + +Known router->code versions +--------------------------- + +Vendor |Model |Code Ver +---------------------------+------------------------------------------+-------- +Belkin |F5D7633 |3.10 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2091_BTR |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2091_ROI |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2091_WB |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V210_BTR |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V210_ROI |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V210_WB |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2110 |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2110_AA |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2110_ROI |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V220V |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2500V |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2500V_AA |2.21 +British Telecom (BT) |Voyager V2500V_SIP_CLUB |2.21 +Comtrend |CT-5261 |3.02 +Comtrend |CT-536 |3.02 +D-Link |DSL-2640B |3.10 +D-Link |DSL-2670B |3.10 +NetGear |DG834GT |3.02 +NetGear |DG834PN |3.02 +Neuf Cegetel |Neufbox 4 |3.12 +Pirelli |Alice Gate Wi-Fi (+VoIP models?) |ag 3.06 +Sagem |F@ST2404 |? +TP-Link |TD-8810A |3.06 +TP-Link |TD-8810B |3.06 +TP-Link |TD-8811A |3.06 +TP-Link |TD-8811B |3.06 +TP-Link |TD-W8900GB |3.06 +Tecom |GW6000 |3.00 +Tecom |GW6200 |3.10 +USR |9108 |? + |
