Upgrade Procedure for v2.1.x Software
CLI: Version 2.1.x Software Upgrade using TFTP/FTP
The v2.1.x software upgrade can only be performed using the CLI, either
through a direct console connection or Telnet, or using SNMP. The upgrading
of the boot code cannot be performed using the web interface.
Note the following points before starting the upgrade procedure:
■ Make sure the access point is running a v2.0.x software version.
■ Place all the v2.1.x upgrade files into the root directory of the TFTP/FTP
server.
■ Be sure there is a stable network connection to the access point. If the
power to the access point or the network connection is lost, the upgrade
may fail and the access point be unable to boot.
■ Where possible, use a 100 Mbps connection to the access point’s Ethernet
port.
