B.2. Load the Firmware Using TFTP
You can also use TFTP to update the firmware file. Before updating the firmware through
TFTP, the firmware flash application must be exited and then erased. To do this, navigate to
the WiNG-MGR’s configuration menu. Once here, click on the “Exit to Bootloader” button.
Once exited, you will get a bootloader web page at the IP address of the unit. Next, click on
the “Erase Flash” button. The Flash application will be erased.
Note To erase the flash, a special username and password are required. The username is fds (all
lowercase), and the password is rle2tech (all lowercase).

Uploading firmware via TFTP requires a TFTP Client. It may be possible to download a
free license TFTP Client from the internet. Consult your IT department to determine a
compatible client program.
2 Verify that your PC and the WiNG-MGR are on the same subnet (LAN).
3 Open your TFTP client. Configure the client as follows.
a Host = WiNG-MGR’s IP Address
b Port = 69
c Block Size = 64, 128, 256, 512, or 1024
Note The file must be sent in BINARY (not ASCII).
4
Send or PUT the first firmware file to the WiNG-MGR. It may take ~10 seconds for the
firmware upload to begin. Do the same with the second firmware file.
5 After one minute, refresh the WiNG-MGR’s web page. Notice that the Flash field now
contains the latest firmware. Click the “Start Application” button to reboot the unit.
