Chapter 4 Updating Device Firmware
Managing Firmware Jobs
Using a Remote TFTP Server for Image Upload
You can download firmware images to a TFTP server and then upload them to
access points and bridges. This method of uploading may be quicker than
uploading from the WLSE if you have a slow link between the WLSE and the
access points and bridges in your network.
To download firmware images, go to the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-wireless.shtml
To make sure you are downloading a supported firmware release, see the
Supported Devices Table for the CiscoWorks 1105 Wireless LAN Solution Engine
on Cisco.com.
Use the normal procedure for creating firmware jobs described in Managing
Firmware Jobs, page 4-9. You specify the TFTP server and provide the filename
in the last step; see Finishing the Job, page 4-14.
Note Even though you may be uploading images from a remote TFTP server, you still
need to import those images to the WLSE. For information on importing images
to the WLSE, see Importing Images, page 4-4.
