Maintenance
This chapter shows you how to maintain the firmware and configuration file.
28.1 Filename Convention
The configuration file contains the factory default settings in the menus such as password,
DHCP Setup, TCP/IP Setup, etc. Once you have customized the settings of the VSG, they can
be saved back to your computer under a filename of your choosing.
The firmware or the configuration files do not have any filename conventions. There is not a
specific file extension or filename conventions that you need to follow. Therefore, you can
specify any name or file extension for the firmware and the configuration files.
However, it is recommended to use the “.bin” file extension for the firmware file and “.rom”
for the configuration file for management purposes.
28.2 Firmware Upgrade
The following sections show you how to upgrade the firmware using the SMT and the web
configurator.
