AutomaticallyCheckingforUpgrades
The DXi6900 can automatically check for available software upgrades on a daily basis. If a software

next to the current software version (see Figure 242 on the next page).
On the SoftwareUpgradeUtility, select the Checkdailyforsoftwareupgrades check box to enable
automatic upgrade checking. Automatic upgrade checking is enabled by default. To disable automatic
upgrade checking, clear the Checkdailyforsoftwareupgrades check box (not recommended).
