Firmware Update
This switch provides the capability to update the firmware for new features, customized requests and
system fault recovery. Click the
Firmware Update
menu to activate this page shown as below:
Before you update the firmware, it is required to correctly prepare the
BOOTP server
(e.g.
haneWIN DHCP server) and have the
firmware file
which will be uploaded to the switch by the
BOOTP server available. (Please refer to the instruction guide for setting up the BOOTP server. The
firmware filename
,
file location
, and the
IP address
to assign to the switch are three important
parameters to setup the BOOTP server.)
When the BOOTP server and the firmware file is ready, click on the Update button to start the
firmware update through the configuration port. Click the Back button to cancel this action.
To process the firmware update file will take approximately 40 seconds, assuming no
communication problems between the switch and the BOOTP server, and assuming the firmware file
can be located by BOOTP server.
