5.1FLASH Upgrades

The KVM s2-1611 FLASH upgrade feature allows you to upgrade your unit with the latest firmware available. To perform this update you will need a TFTP server. If you don’t already have a TFTP server, there are several you can download from the internet.

If you upgrade the appliance firmware, please verify the individual firmware of the KVM s2-Adapters. The upgrade of the adapters requires a separate upgrade procedure which is found in Chapter 4.

Next, you will need to copy the FLASH upgrade file (.fl file extension) from the CD. Save the FLASH upgrade file to the appropriate directory on the TFTP server. Once this is complete, the following steps will upload the new FLASH file.

When upgrading your switch firmware, ensure that the keyboard coun- try codes with your system correspond with the firmware loaded in your switch. Contact Fujitsu SiemensTechnical Support for more informa- tion. Technical Support contact information is available at the end of this manual.

5.1.1. Uploading a new FLASH file

Connect a terminal or PC running terminal emulation software (such as HyperTerminal) to the configuration port on the back panel of the KVM s2-1611 using a straight-through null modem cable. The terminal should be set to 9600 baud, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no flow control.

Connect the LAN port on the KVM s2-1611 to an Ethernet hub that is also connected to the PC being used as the TFTP server.

Launch both the server software and the terminal emulation software.

Verify that the KVM s2-1611 is turned on. After approximately 40 seconds, the KVM s2-1611 will send out a message, Fujitsu Siemens KVM series2-1611 Ready__Press any key to continue. Press any key to access the main menu. The KVM s2-1611 main menu appears.

Get the IP address of the TFTP server: If using the SolarWinds TFTP server, it appears in the lower right-hand corner of the server’s pane. Otherwise, extract it from the OS tools (may be OS-dependent):

a.Right-click on Network Neighborhood.

b.Select Properties.

c.Select the Protocols tab.

d.Select TCP/IP protocol.

e.Select Properties and note the IP address.
