   1 The image neede to flash onto a Broadcom 63xx-series board depends on the
   2 board, method you are using to flash, and, for web-based flash, on the version
   3 of the Broadcom code your router uses.
   4
   5 There are two major revisions of the Broadcom code as far as imagetags are
   6 concerned, before 3.08 and after 3.08, however there are some variations
   7 within in that, either due to vendor differences or due to changes at
   8 Broadcom (it's not clear yet which is the case).  In addtion Pirelli modified
   9 the Broadcom code, so Alice Gate models use a different imagetag than any
  10 other vendor.
  11
  12 The imagetag format for flashing via CFE is the same for almost all the
  13 boards, and is the same for all images generated by the imagetag utility.
  14 Images flashable using cfe are labelled openwrt-<board>-<filesystem>-cfe.bin
  15
  16 The imagetags for tftp/ftp flashing is based on Broadcom 3.00-3.04 imagetags
  17 and is known to be correct as the source code GPL and is available for reading.
  18
  19 Broadcom code 2.21 is based on the BT Voyager firmware image I looked at.  It
  20 may in fact be BT Voyager-specific.  2.21 is actually more difficult to deal
  21 with the imagetag from 3.00 as it has three different CRC calculations in
  22 addtition to the header CRC.
  23
  24 Broadcom 3.00-3.02 flashing has been tested on Comtrend CT-5261, CT-536 and
  25 Tecom GW6000, and is the version of the flashing that was present before the
  26 imagetags were split by broadcom code version (early June 2009)
  27
  28 3.04 is guessed to be the same as 3.00-3.02 based on available information
  29
  30 Broadom 3.06 is thought to be the same as 3.00-3.02, however the only 3.06
  31 this author (Daniel Dickinson) has seen is the Alice Gate (Pirelli) firmware
  32 which is known to be different due to vendor (Pirelli) modifications to the
  33 Broadcom code.
  34
  35 Broadcom 3.10 uses an imagetag that is believed to apply to all 3.10 and 3.12
  36 versions, and has been tested on the Tecom GW6200.  This version introdec changes to
  37 the imagetag to deal with TR69 (a remote rouer management system developed by the
  38 DSL forum).  There is a field for vendor-specific information, that at least in some
  39 cases is not optional.  It is based on the hexedit of a neufbox4 firmware image, the
  40 information in https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/4987, and the hexedit of a Tecom
  41 GW6200 image.
  42
  43 Some boards share the same tag format, but require vendor-specific fields in
  44 the board.  In that case the tagid is shared, but the filename of the generated
  45 image reflects the router for which the image was created.
