5.6 Firmware Upgrade

System tools >> Firmware Upgrade

You can upgrade the firmware of your WLA-9000AP (the software that controls your

WLA-9000AP’s operation). Normally, this is done when a new version of firmware offers

new features that you want, or solves problems that you have encountered with the current

version. System upgrade can be performed through the System Upgrade window as

follows:

Step 1 Select System Tools, then Firmware Upgrade from the menu.

Step 2 To update the WLA-9000AP firmware, first download the firmware from the

distributor’s web site to your local disk, and then from the above screen enter the

path and filename of the firmware file (or click

Browse to locate the firmware file).

Next, Click the

Upgrade button to start.

The new firmware will be loaded to your WLA-9000AP. After a message appears telling you

that the operation is completed, you need to reset the system to have the new firmware

take effect.

Do not power off the device while upgrading the firmware.

It is recommended that you do not upgrade your WLA-9000AP unless

the new firmware has new features you need or if it has a fix to a

problem that you’ve encountered.
