Http/Https Upgrade; Tftp Upgrade - Cisco WAP125 Administrator's Manual

HTTP/HTTPS Upgrade

A dialog box appears confirming the firmware image switch and subsequent reboot.
Step 3 Click OK to proceed.
The process may take several minutes, during which time the WAP device is unavailable. Do not power down the WAP
device while the image switch is in process. When the image switch is complete, the WAP device restarts. The WAP
device resumes normal operation with the same configuration settings it had before the upgrade.
HTTP/HTTPS Upgrade
To upgrade using HTTP/HTTPS:
Step 1 Select HTTP/HTTPS as the transfer method.
Step 2
Click Browse and locate the firmware image file on your network.
The firmware upgrade file supplied must be a tar file. Do not attempt to use bin files or files of other formats for the
upgrade; these types of files do not work.
Step 3
Click Upgrade to apply the new firmware image.
Uploading the new firmware may take several minutes. Do not refresh the page or navigate to another page while
uploading the new firmware, or the firmware upload is aborted. When the process is complete, the WAP device restarts
and resumes normal operation.
Step 4 To verify that the firmware was upgraded successfully, log into the web-based Configuration Utility, open the Upgrade
Firmware page, and view the active firmware version.

TFTP Upgrade

To upgrade the firmware on the WAP device using TFTP:
Step 1 Select TFTP as the transfer method.
Step 2 Enter a name (1 to 256 characters) for the image file in the Source File Name field, including the path to the directory
that contains the image to upload.
For example, to upload the ap_upgrade.tar image located in the /share/builds/ap directory, enter:
/share/builds/ap/ap_upgrade.tar
The firmware upgrade file supplied must be a tar file. Do not attempt to use bin files or files of other formats for the
upgrade; these types of files do not work.
The filename cannot contain the following items: spaces, <, >, |, \, : , (, ), &, ; , #, ? , *, and two or more successive
periods.
Step 3 Enter the TFTP Server IPv4 address and click Upgrade.
