Flash Rom Update - Ricoh G031 Service Manual

3.2 FLASH ROM UPDATE

3.2.1 INTRODUCTION
Before you update network interface card firmware, you must obtain the latest
firmware file and set up an update utility that is suitable for the network
environment.
A firmware file (*.upd, *.upp, *.upt, or *.upu file) is normally distributed as a ZIP file
(e.g., RIC221.ZIP). The update procedure is the same for each of these file types.
Before starting the firmware update utility, you need to unzip the file to a temporary
directory on a host computer.
Two types of utility software, FlashUP and FTPDL, are provided as 'ZIP' files with
this document. Use the FlashUP utility for Novell server based IPX networks, or
use the FTPDL utility for TCP/IP networks. You do not need to install both because
they have the same function.
NOTE: Before using the FTPDL utility, the NIB must be configured with an IP
address and subnet mask.
