Upgrading Firmware

You can upgrade new wireless bridge software from a local file on the management 
workstation, or from an FTP or TFTP server.  

After upgrading new software, you must reboot the wireless bridge to implement the 
new code. Until a reboot occurs, the wireless bridge will continue to run the software 
it was using before the upgrade started. Also note that rebooting the wireless bridge 
with new software will reset the configuration to the factory default settings. 

Note:

Before upgrading your wireless bridge software, it is recommended to save a 
copy of the current configuration file. See “copy” on page 7-29 for information 
on saving the configuration file to a TFTP or FTP server. 

Before upgrading new software, verify that the wireless bridge is connected to the 
network and has been configured with a compatible IP address and subnet mask.

If you need to download from an FTP or TFTP server, take the following additional 
steps:

• Obtain the IP address of the FTP or TFTP server where the wireless bridge 

software is stored.

• If upgrading from an FTP server, be sure that you have an account configured on 

the server with a user name and password.

Current version

 – Version number of runtime code.
