Creating firmware

Flash permits multiple firmware images to be stored on the ESU 1850. Nortel recommends maintaining no more than three stored images on the ESU 1850 flash. If more than three images exist, use Update to download the firmware or delete one of the existing files before using Create.

Use this procedure to create a firmware file.
