Upgrade
The DFL-700’s
software, IDS
signatures and system
parameters are all
stored on a flash
memory card. The flash
memory card is re-
writable and re-readable.
Upgrade
Firmware
To upgrade the
firmware first download
the correct firmware
image from D-Link. After
having the newest
version of software,
please store it on the
hard disk, then connect
to the firewall’s WebUI,
enter Upgrade on the
Tools menu, click
Browse and choose the
file name of the newest
version of the firmware,
then click Upload
firmware image.
The updating process won’t overwrite the system configuration, so it is not necessary but still
a good idea to backup it before upgrading the software.
Upgrade IDS Signature-database
To upgrade the signature-database first download the newest IDS signatures from D-Link.
After having the newest version of software connect to the firewall’s WebUI, enter Upgrade
on the Tools menu, click Browse in the Upgrade Unit’s signature-database section and
choose the file name of the newest version of the IDS signatures, then click Upload
signature database.
