Upload: Click the “Upload” button. The switch will start to upload the firmware from files stored locally or on the server.

NOTE: This page facilitates an update of the firmware controlling the switch. Uploading software will update all managed switches to the location of a software image and click. After the software image is uploaded, a page announces that the firmware update is initiated. After about a minute, the firmware is updated and all managed switches restart. Then the managed switch restarts.
