Upgrading Firmware
You can upgrade the firmware for either the Remote Console Switch or the
SIPs. The SIPs can be upgraded individually or simultaneously. When an
upgrade is initiated, you will see a progress bar. As long as an upgrade is in
progress, you cannot initiate another.
The Enable Auto-Upgrade for All SIPs check box allows you to enable an
auto-upgrade for SIP firmware. You can override the auto-upgrade at any
stage using the Load Firmware button described in the next section.
NOTE: For the 2161DS-2, 4161DS, and 2321DS, you can upload new appliance
firmware using ASMP (if supported) or TFTP file transfer protocols. ASMP file
transfer allows you to select the firmware from a local file system. The 2161DS TFTP
file transfer allows you to specify the TFTP server address and the name of the
firmware file.
