Firmware Upgrade

As new versions of the iCard Firmware become available, they can be
downloaded from our website and installed using this page. Check the website
regularly to find the latest information and packages to update your KVM
switch. Our website provides firmware upgrade packages that are specific for
each device. The Mainboard Firmware can only be upgraded via the
Firmware Upgrade Port (see The Firmware Upgrade Utility, page 189 for
details).
To upgrade the main firmware, do the following:
1. Download the new iCard firmware file to your computer.
2. Log in to the KVM over IP switch; and click the Maintenance tab. The
Maintenance tab opens to the Upgrade Main Firmware* page:
3. Click Browse; navigate to the directory that the new iCard firmware file is
in and select the file.
4. Click Upgrade Firmware to start the upgrade procedure.
If you enabled Check Main Firmware Version* the current firmware
level is compared with that of the upgrade file. If the current version is
equal to or higher than the upgrade version, a popup message appears,
to inform you of the situation and stops the upgrade procedure.
If you didn't enable Check Main Firmware Version*, the upgrade file
is installed without checking what its level is.
As the upgrade proceeds, progress information is shown in the
Progress bar.
Once the upgrade completes successfully, the switch resets itself.
5. Log in again, and check the firmware version to be sure it is the new one.
Note: The term "Main Firmware" in this section refers to the CL5708I /
CL5716I's iCard firmware and not the Mainboard firmware.
