I The current firmware versions are present on the ServerView Suite DVD 1

Technology Solutions web server.
You can obtain the up-to-date version of the ServerView Suite DVD 1 at
two-monthly intervals.
I Besides the possibility of performing a firmware update, you can also
downgrade the firmware to the previous version.
I Before updating or downgrading the firmware, read the supplementary
documentation supplied with the new firmware carefully (in particular the
Readme files).

to activate the updated / downgraded firmware.
V CAUTION!
When updating / downgrading the firmware, note that the problem-free
operation of the firmware can only be guaranteed if the runtime firmware

same firmware release.
