This completes the preparation for a firmware download.
Upload image file from the Web to staging
area
To upload files from the Web, you need a temporary staging area to store the firmware images before
downloading them to a circuit pack. Although the staging area is often on a PC platform, you can also use
other platforms such as a UNIX or Linux.

Go to the Avaya Support Web site (http://avaya.com/support). Follow the Software & Firmware
Downloads link and the subsequent links for your product and the target circuit pack TN code.
2
Find the section for the firmware vintage you want. Unless otherwise instructed, choose the
highest vintage.
3
Be sure to read that vintage's ReadMe file before downloading the image file(s).

For each image file to be downloaded:
