4.2.10 Software Upgrade
The “Software Upgrade” screen enables you to perform software upgrades or to return to a
previous software image.
Z Browse to a file on you local system, or enter the full path name of
a software image.
Z Click Upload.
When the new image file is successfully uploaded it will appear in the “Existing Images”
window as “New” and a “Ready to Upgrade” message will appear.
Z Click the Upgrade button.
The system will reboot.
Z Reconnect your browser to the system and return immediately to
the Administration: Software Upgrade window.
Z Click the Finalize button
Note
Remember that a successful upgrade requires the clicking of three buttons: Upload,
Upgrade, and after a reboot, Finalize. Because some time passes while the system
reboots and you reconnect your browser it is easy to overlook the third step.
Don’t Forget to Finalize!
