3.Configure the IP address of the computer so that the AWK-1100 and the computer are on the same IP subnet.

4.On the computer, run the TFTP Server utility, and specify the folder in which the firmware files will be placed.

5.On the computer, run a Web browser and click the General, Firmware Tools hyperlink.

6.Choose TFTP as the Firmware management protocol.

7.Specify the IP address of the computer, which acts as a TFTP server. If you don’t know the IP address of the computer, open a Command Prompt, and type ipconfig, then press the Enter key.

8.Trigger the firmware upgrade process by clicking Upgrade.

NOTE	After the dialog box of the TFTP server program appears, be sure to specify the working folder
	within which the downloaded firmware files reside.
	Make sure the Accept read requests check box of the TFTP Server is selected.
	The LAN IP address of the AP and the IP address of the TFTP server must be on the same IP
	subnet for TFTP to work.
	Due to the unreliable nature of wireless media, it is highly recommended that the TFTP server
	and the wireless AP that is being upgraded are connected by Ethernet on the same LAN. Doing so
	will help ensure a much smoother upgrade process.
	After the firmware is upgraded, be sure to delete the contents of the Web browser cache so that
	the Web management pages can be shown correctly.
	A failed upgrade may corrupt the firmware and cause the AWK-1100 to fail. When this occurs,
	contact MOXA technical support for assistance.
