Flash Upgrades

The switch Flash upgrade feature allows you to update your appliance with the
latest firmware available. This update can be performed using a Trivial File
Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or using the OBWI.
After the Flash memory is reprogrammed with the upgrade, the 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.
During an IQ module upgrade, the IQ module status indicator in the OSD Main dialog
box is yellow.
WARNING: Disconnecting an IQ module during a firmware update or cycling power to
the target device will render the module inoperable and require the IQ module to be
returned to the factory for repair.

Recovering from a failed Flash upgrade

If the green power LED on the front and back panel of the switch blinks continuously,
the switch is in recovery mode.
Only IQ modules and SMB adapters can be Flash upgraded.
To recover from a failed Flash upgrade:
1. Visit http://www.fujitsu.com/support and download the latest Flash firmware
from Fujitsu
2. Save the Flash upgrade file to the appropriate directory on the TFTP server.
3. Set up the TFTP server with the server IP address 10.0.0.20.
4. Rename the downloaded file the appropriate name from the following list
and place it into the TFTP root directory of the TFTP server:
• CMN-1082.fl
5. Attach a cross-over CAT 5 cable to the switch for this process instead of a
standard CAT 5 cable.
6. If the switch is not on, turn it on now.
7. The recovery process should start automatically.
