AlterPath KVM/net Installation, Administration, and User’s Guide

1. Login as root to your KVM/net and execute the following commands.

2. Execute the following command as “root” to generate the md5 checksum

of the upgraded firmware file.

3. The following md5 file is generated and displayed.

4. Use the

cat

command to compare the displayed checksum with the

checksum provided with the firmware.

Note: The displayed checksum must be identical with the checksum provided with

the firmware (*.md5 file). If the checksum is different, it means that a
problem occurred during the download process, and the firmware may be
damaged. In this case please check the steps you took during the upgrade
process and try again.

Warning! Do not reboot the KVM/net until you have upgraded the firmware

successfully.

5. If you would like to set the unit back to factory default, enter the following

command. Assumption is that you are logged in as “root”.
