Firmware Upgrade
The application software for the GS716T and GS724T Smart Switches is upgradable,
enabling your switch to take advantage of improvements and additional features as they
become available. The upgrade procedure and the required equipment are described in this
section. This procedure assumes that you have downloaded or otherwise obtained the
firmware upgrade and that you have it available as a binary file on your computer. This
procedure uses the TFTP protocol to implement the transfer from computer to switch.
Note: You can also upgrade the firmware using the TFTP Download and
HTTP Download features mentioned in this book. See HTTP File
Upload on page 256.
To upgrade your firmware:
1. Click the Maintenance tab, and then click the Firmware link directly below the tabs (see
Figure 1 on page 12).
2. Select the switch to upgrade and click Download Firmware.
