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

1 Uncompress the

.zip

file obtained from the

ATTO Technology Inc. website

(www.attotech.com) into an image file (

.ima

Note the filename.

2 Establish an FTP link to the bridge that is to be

flashed.

3 Use the

PUT

command to download the

firmware. For example

c:\bridge_firmware\I1500110.ima

4 Once the download is complete, cycle power on

the iPBridge to activate the new firmware.
