Firmware by TFTP
To install firmware by TFTP, you will need:
• A PC with a TFTP server running.
• The IP address of the PC running the TFTP server.
If you do not know your computer’s address on a Windows PC, you can
use the

Start
menu and enter
winipcfg
or
ipconfig
to
determine your local PC’s IP address. The IP address of the radio can be
found under the Management Systems’
Configuration
menu.
