Upgrade the Switch
Firmware
You must have access to the Internet to download switch firmware from
to your computer or network drive.
To update the switch with the latest software changes and features, from the
Admin menu, choose Software Update.
From the Device Manager Web interface, you can upgrade your switches one at a
time.
With firmware revision 2.001 or later, the firmware upgrade is installed to the
running nonvolatile memory location:
• If you start the switch with the SD card inserted, the upgrade is installed
on the SD card.
• If you start the switch from onboard memory without the SD card
inserted, the upgrade is installed in the onboard flash memory.
When the upgrade process completes, a success message appears, and the switch
automatically restarts. It can take a few minutes for the switch to restart with the
new firmware.
Verify that the latest firmware revision on the switch appears in the Software field
in the Switch Information area of the dashboard.
See the Device Manager Web interface online help for additional guidelines and
procedures.
IMPORTANT
Wait for the upgrade process to complete. Do not use or close the browser
session with the Device Manager Web interface active. Do not access the
Device Manager Web interface from another browser session.
