2.4 Updating firmware
Several processors control the flow of data in the ATTO iPBridge. The firmware to control these processors can easily be upgraded in the field using the PUT command from an FTP connection.
The iPBridge firmware is distributed as a compressed .zip file and can be obtained from the ATTO Technology, Inc. web site at
www.attotech.com.
To use FTP over GbE to flash new firmware into the iPBridge
1Uncompress the .zip file obtained from the ATTO Technology Inc. website
(www.attotech.com) into an image file (.ima). Note the filename.
2Establish an FTP link to the bridge that is to be flashed.
3Use the PUT command to download the firmware. For example
c:\bridge_firmware\I1500110.ima
4Once the download is complete, cycle power on the iPBridge to activate the new firmware.
