Upgrading the Firmware Image
Upgrading the Firmware Image
You can use the web interface to check for software updates/upgrades for the firmware
image built into the AP.
You can then apply these updates to the device in one of two ways: manual updating
on an as-needed basis, or automating a regularly scheduled update.
Before starting, decide which option you want to take:
• Automate a regularly scheduled update
• Run a one-time manual update right now
By default, the automatic upgrade option is disabled.
To upgrade the firmware image, go to Maintenance > Upgrade. When the Upgrade
Method options appear, decide which upgrade method to use. Each of the upgrade
options listed on the Upgrade page are discussed in the succeeding sections.
