Accessing Firmware Over the Internet
Many customers rely upon the Customer Firmware Kit quarterly update
service (includes Alpha Firmware Update CD-ROM) for their firmware
updates. Firmware updates can also be obtained via the Internet, at the
following address:
ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/readme.html
Using a World Wide Web browser, use the following URLs:
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/readme.html
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/v6.0/as4x00
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/v6.0/options
http://ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/Alpha/firmware/v6.0/doc
The Web pages are organized for the CD release for each platform. There
are directories for each AlphaServer platform as well as a common options
area for I/O option firmware. In addition, a /interim page is maintained
for products such as the AlphaServer 4100 which ship between Alpha
Firmware CD releases. Watch for firmware updates in the /interim/as4x00
directory as well as future CD-ROM releases.
Console firmware update images and associated files are located in the
/as4x00 directory. I/O option firmware files are accessible via the /options
directory. Release notes are accessible via the /doc directory.
