Figure 56 Upgrade Screen
Once you have downloaded the software, use the Browse button
to locate the file on your computer, and then click on Apply .
You may need to change the file type in the dialog box displayed
by your web browser to *.* to be able to see the file.
The file will be copied to the Gateway, and once this has
completed, the Gateway will restart. Although the upgrade
process has been designed to preserve your configuration
settings, 3Com recommends that you make a backup of the
configuration beforehand, in case the upgrade process fails for
any reason (for example, the connection between the computer
and the Gateway is lost while the new software is being copied
to the Gateway).
The upgrade procedure can take a few minutes, and is complete
when the Alert LED has stopped flashing and is permanently off.
Make sure that you do not interrupt power to the Gateway
during the upgrade procedure; if you do, the software may be
corrupted and the Gateway may not start up properly afterwards.
If the Alert LED comes on continuously after a failed upgrade,
refer to
“Troubleshooting” on page 61 .
Viewing Status and Logs
Selecting Status and Logs from the Main menu displays the
Status and Logs screens in your Web browser. The Status and
Logs screen display a tabular representation of your network and
Internet connection.
Status - to display the current unit status, including a summary of
the configuration. See Figure 57 .
Logs - to view both the normal events, and security threats
logged by the Gateway
You may be asked to refer to the information on the Status
screen if you contact your supplier for technical support.
