This page provides information about the active and alternate (backup) firmware
images in the device, and permits you to revert to the alternate image. The web page
displays two tables with information about the active and alternate firmware images.
Note:
If the active firmware image is the alternate image, only the "Active Image" table
is shown. In this case, the
Activate Alternate Image
button is also disabled.
Note:
1. If the alternate image is active (due to a corruption of the primary image or by
manual intervention), uploading a new firmware image to the device will activate
the primary image slot and use it instead.
2. The firmware version and date information may be empty for older firmware
releases. This does not constitute an error.
The page includes the following fields:
