Firmware
The WAP device maintains two firmware images. One image is active and the other is inactive. If the active
image fails to load during boot up, the inactive image is loaded and becomes the active image. You can also
swap the active and inactive images.
When new versions of the firmware become available, you can upgrade the firmware on your WAP device
to take advantage of new features and enhancements. The WAP device uses a TFTP or HTTP/HTTPS client
for firmware upgrades.
After you upload the new firmware and the system reboots, the newly added firmware becomes the primary
image. If the upgrade fails, the original firmware remains as the primary image.
When you upgrade the firmware, the WAP device retains the existing configuration settings.
Note
Swapping the Firmware Image
To swap the firmware image running on the WAP device:
Step 1 Select Administration > Firmware. The product ID (PID VID), active and inactive firmware version are displayed.
Step 2 Click Swap Images. A dialog box appears confirming the firmware image switch and subsequent reboot.
Step 3 Click Yes to proceed.
