Recovering from Failed Firmware Upgrade

To recover from firmware upgrade difficulties, you must first reinstall the previous versions of firmware, then upgrade to the new version of firmware. The previous versions of firmware were included in the compressed file you downloaded from the Hewlett- Packard Software Depot (http://www.software.hp.com).

2.Press the Reset button on the front panel of the hub.

The terminal emulator screen begins to display the status of the hub. To reboot, you must interrupt the status display to go to the Boot menu.

3.Wait for the following message:

Press Enter key for Boot Menu, Agent boot in 6 seconds.

4.Immediately press <ENTER> to display the Boot menu:
