operating system platform other than Windows (such as a
Macintosh or Linux OS), you must update your firmware from this
configuration page as firmware versions are released. This is

Follow these steps to perform this procedure:

For example, if using the default IP address, go to: http://192.168.111.1

6 Click the Update button.
