Upgrading the NSS Firmware

WARNING: When you upgrade the firmware, avoid using a wireless connection to the NSS as
wireless connections can be unreliable and cause image corruption. Do not interrupt the power
during the firmware upgrade. The system will reboot after the firmware upgrade is completed. Wait
until the Power LED goes back to solid green before you log in and use the configuration interface.
To upgrade the firmware:
1. Back up the system configuration file on a USB flash device before you upgrade the firmware.
It is a good idea to back up the configuration file daily.
2. Download the latest image from the support website to your local computer.
3. From the Manager Menu, click Admin
The System Details page appears.
4. In the Firmware image file: field, either enter the location of the firmware file, or click Browse to
locate it.
5. Click Upgrade Firmware to initiate the upgrade process.
6. When the firmware upgrade completes, the system automatically reboots. Wait until the Power
LED is a solid green before you log back into the configuration interface.
