.
Figure 45

Figure 45. Firmware upgrade
To use either a remote or serial console to upgrade your firmware, the TELENT/SSH or terminal emulation
program must support Zmodem transfer protocol. The previous settings will be retained after the
firmware upgrade.
To upgrade firmware via a remote console:
1. Obtain the latest firmware.
2. Connect the terminal emulation program using either TELENT/SSH or a serial console port. (TELNET
or SSH is recommended since the process of firmware upgrade by serial console requires extremely
long time.)
