Firmware and Configuration File
Maintenance
This chapter tells you how to upload a new firmware and/or configuration file for
the SAM1316-22.
57.1 Firmware and Configuration File
Maintenance Overview
The SAM1316-22’s built-in FTP server allows you to use any FTP client (for
example, ftp.exe in Windows) to upgrade SAM1316-22 firmware or configuration
files. The firmware or configuration file upgrade is done during operation (run-
time).
Note: Do not turn off the power to the SAM1316-22 during the file transfer process, as
it may permanently damage your SAM1316-22.
Note: The SAM1316-22 automatically restarts when the upgrade process is complete.
57.2 Filename Conventions
The configuration file (called config-0) contains the factory default settings in the
menus such as password, IP address, VLANs and so on. The configuration file
arrives with a “rom” filename extension.
The OS (Operating System) firmware (sometimes referred to as the “ras” file) has
a “bin” filename extension. With many FTP and clients, the filenames are similar to
those shown next.
