Recovering From a Failed Flash Upgrade
NOTE: You can only recover from a failed Flash upgrade when using IPv4 mode. If the green power
LED on the front and back panel of the remote console switch blinks continuously, the remote console
switch is in recovery mode.
To recover from a failed Flash upgrade:
1. Download the latest Flash firmware.
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 “CMN-1095.fl” and place it into the TFTP root directory of the
TFTP server.
5. If the remote console switch is not on, turn it on now. The recovery process should start
automatically.
4.5 Property Identity and Location Settings
The switch can report most device properties directly through the switch web browser. Clicking
Id en tity

of the RAK-key. The Unit Location Properties window displays the site, department and location.
NOTE: RAK-key installation is only applicable for the 2108/2216 switch models.
