60.14 Firmware Upgrade

You can upgrade the Switch's firmware through Web Configurator or NCC.
Firmware Upgrade Through NCC
In cloud management mode, NCC will first check if the firmware on the Switch needs to be upgraded. If
it does, the Switch will upgrade the firmware immediately. If the firmware does not need to be
upgraded, but there is newer firmware available for the Switch, then it will be upgraded according to
the firmware upgrade schedule for the Switch on the NCC.

DESCRIPTION
Select this option if you want to ping an IPv6 address. You can also select vlan and specify
the ID number of the VLAN to which the Switch is to send ping requests. Otherwise, select – to
send ping requests to all VLANs on the Switch.
Type the IP address or host name of a device that you want to ping in order to test a
connection.
Click Ping to have the Switch ping the IP address.
Type the source IP address that you want to ping in order to test a connection.
Click Ping to have the Switch ping the IP address.

Select this option if you want to trace the route packets taken to a device with an IPv6
address.
Enter the IP address or host name of a device to which you want to perform a traceroute.
Click Trace Route to have the Switch perform the traceroute function. This determines the
path a packet takes to the specified device.
Enter the Time To Live (TTL) value for the ICMP Echo Request packets. This is to set the
maximum number of the hops (routers) a packet can travel through. Each router along the
path will decrement the TTL value by one and forward the packets. When the TTL value
becomes zero and the destination is not found, the router drops the packets and informs the
sender.
Specify how many seconds the Switch waits for a response to a probe before running
another traceroute.
Specify how many times the Switch performs the traceroute function.
Enter a port number and click Port Test to perform an internal loopback test.
Enter a port number and click Diagnose to perform a physical wire-pair test of the Ethernet
connections on the specified ports. The following fields display when you diagnose a port.
Note: This feature is limited to within 100 meters only.
