Managing the DSR Switch On-Board Web Interface

While not as powerful as the DSView 3 software, the DSR switch on-board web interface
provides several configuration options to tailor the DSR switch to your specific application.

Upgrading IQ modules

The IQ module Flash upgrade feature allows you to update IQ modules with the latest firmware
available. This update can be performed using the DSR switch on-board web interface, DSView
3 software or the OSCAR interface.
After the Flash memory is reprogrammed with the upgrade, the DSR switch performs a soft
reset, which terminates all IQ module sessions. A target device experiencing an IQ module
firmware update may not display, or may display as disconnected. The target device will appear
normally when the Flash update is completed.
NOTE: Check www.avocent.com for firmware upgrade files.
NOTE: IQ modules are automatically updated when the DSR switch is updated. To update your DSR switch
firmware, see Flash Upgrades on page 97 or the DSView 3 software online help.
If issues occur during the normal upgrade process, IQ modules may also be force upgraded
when needed.
To force upgrade the IQ module firmware using the DSR switch on-board web
interface:
1. From the side navigation bar, select Appliance - Appliance Settings - Ports - IQ modules.
2. Select the IQ modules that you wish to upgrade and click the Upgrade button.
CAUTION: Disconnecting a DSR switch or IQ module or power cycling the user's computer during a firmware
update may render it inoperable and require it to be returned to the factory for repair.

Managing USB speed

Depending on your IQ module type, you may have the option of choosing either USB 1.1 Full
Speed or USB 2.0 Hi Speed.
