4Make sure the FortiWiFi unit can connect to the TFTP server.
You can use the following command to ping the computer running the TFTP
server. For example, if the TFTP server's IP address is 192.168.1.168:
execute ping 192.168.1.168
5Enter the following command to copy the firmware image from the TFTP server to
the FortiWiFi unit:
execute restore image TFTP <name_str> <tftp_ipv4>
Where <name_str> is the name of the firmware image file and <tftp_ip4> is
the IP address of the TFTP server. For example, if the firmware image file name is
image.out and the IP address of the TFTP server is 192.168.1.168, enter:
execute restore image TFTP image.out
192.168.1.168
