While the Access Point boots, verify the Access Point:
●
Obtains and applies the expected IP Address from the DHCP Server
●
Downloads both the firmware and configuration files from the TFTP Server and updates both as
needed. Verify the file versions within the
System Settings
screen.
NOTE
If the firmware files are the same, the firmware will not get updated. If the configuration file name matches
the last used configuration file on the Access Point or if the configuration file versions are the same, the Access
Point configuration will not get updated.
