The upgrade procedure can take a few

bar has finished running and the Power LED
has stopped flashing and is permanently green.

do, the firmware may be corrupted and the
Switch may not start up properly afterwards.

Reboot
Clicking on Administration, then Reboot on the

Reboot the Switch if you are experiencing
problems and you want to re-establish your

operational again.
