•
Reboot Device
—Initiates rebooting of the
transceiver
. This will
interrupt data traffic through this unit, and the network if per-
formed on an Access Point. Intended to be used for switching
between firmware images 1 and 2.
•
Current Firmware
—Displays the versions of firmware images
installed in the transceiver and shows whether Image 1 or Image
2 is currently active.
NOTE:
See
Upgrade Procedure on Page 117
for details on setting up
the TFTP server.
Firmware images are available free-of-charge at:
www.GEmds.com/Resources/TechnicalSupport/
.
NOTE:
You may not install AP firmware in Remote radios, or
vice-versa. This was only true for earlier (pre-2.1.0) firmware.
To install firmware by TFTP, you will need:
• A PC with a TFTP server running
• The IP address of the PC running the TFTP server
• A valid firmware file
The IP address of the radio can be found under the Management
System’s
Starting Information Screen
. (
See
“Starting Information Screen”
on Page 40
.)
A TFTP server is available on the GE MDS Web site at:
www.GEmds.com/Resources/TechnicalSupport/
.
TIP: If you do not know your computer’s address on a Windows PC, you
can use the
RUN
function from the
Start
menu and enter
winipcfg
or
ipconfig
to determine your local PC’s IP address.
There are several alternatives to connecting the transceiver for firmware
upgrades.
Figure 3-90
and
Figure 3-91
show two variations. It is essen-
tial that all equipment be on the same subnet.
