software can also reside in the Flash memory of the Bridge, which allows booting without the
need to download the operating system from the host PC over an FTP connection. A
configuration file is created in Flash memory to store user-configurable parameters such as
WEP keys. A terminal or PC with an Ethernet connection is required to perform the initial
Bridge configuration. An FTP server is required for firmware update to the Bridge.
