Firmware Upgrade

This mode enables the access point firmware to be upgraded by either a TFTP session with a TFTP server or via the web interface. Note that these upgrade methods are intended to be used over the wired Ethernet LAN only and must not be used over the wireless LAN to the access point. Select the required upgrade method by clicking on the relevant Next button.

TFTP Upgrade

In this method the access point communicates with a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server running on a computer on the same wired network as the access point. A TFTP server session is started on the remote computer and the IP address of that system noted. The upgrade file is loaded into the main directory of the TFTP server. Consult the TFTP server documentation for details.

The upgrade process is:-

1.Open the TFTP Upgrade screen on the access point and enter the IP address of the TFTP server together with the name of the upgrade file.

2.Select Apply when ready and the TFTP download will start to the access point. This upgrade can take up to 3 minutes.

3.Near the end of the download, the web screen will update and show a progress bar.

4.The access point will re-boot at the end of the download.

Note that the IP addresses and other critical settings are all retained following the upgrade. No manual intervention such as activating the reset button is required.
