4.1.5 Performing an upgrade
ServSwitch Agility and Agility Dual units are flash upgradeable using the method outlined here. However, for larger installations
we recommend that you use the ServSwitch iPath manager to upgrade multiple Agility units. When using the method below, the
Agility unit will be upgraded in sequence.
Warning: During the upgrade process, ensure that power is not interrupted as this may leave the unit in an inoperable state.
4.1.5.1 To upgrade a single unit via network link
1 Download the latest upgrade file (Please contact Black Box technical support for details).
Note: There are separate upgrade files for TX and RX units.
2 Temporarily connect the ServSwitch Agility unit and a computer via a network (see section 4.1.4 for details).
3 Run a web browser on your computer and enter the IP address of the ServSwitch Agility unit to be upgraded.
4 Click the Firmware Upgrade link. Within the Firmware Upgrade page, click the Choose File button. In the subsequent file dia-
log, locate the downloaded upgrade file - check that the file is correct for the unit being upgraded.
5 Click the Upgrade Now button. A progress bar will be displayed (however, if your screen is connected to the unit being
upgraded then video may be interrupted) and the indicators on the front panel will flash while the upgrade is in progress.
6 The indicators should stop flashing in less than one minute, after which the unit will automatically reboot itself. The upgrade
process is complete.
