Update Firmware

Firmware can be easily upgraded via web page. This section describes the upgrade
procedures.

Figure 6-31 Update Firmwares

The IP-KVM is a complete standalone computer. The software it runs is called
firmware. The firmware of the IP-KVM can be updated remotely in order to install
new functionality or special features.

A new firmware update is a binary file which will be sent to you by email or which you
can  download  from  the  supplier  web  site.  If  the  firmware  file  is  compressed  (file
suffix  .zip)  then  you  must  unzip  it  before  you  can  proceed.  Under  the  Windows
operating  system  you  may  use  WinZip  from  http://www.winzip.com/  for
decompression. Other operating systems might provide a program called unzip.

Before you can start updating the firmware of your IP-KVM the new uncompressed
firmware file has to be accessible on the system that you use for connecting to the
IP-KVM.
