more information on how to configure a DHCP or BootP Server for the automatic upgrade process,

.
The update is conducted over the LAN or WAN port depending on which server responds first to
the access point’s request for an automatic update.
CAUTION
If using a Linux server configured to support the BootP “bf” option, an automatic firmware update is not
be triggered unless both the Enable Automatic Firmware Update and Enable Automatic Configuration Update
