System Maintenance
Access Controller and using the Wireless Data Privacy protocols will temporarily lose their connections,
and any remote CLI sessions over SSH will be terminated. It is recommended that you update your
flash-based Access Controllers during times when system usage is low.
Upgrading the software image is a two step process.
First, download the software to the selected component. The downloaded software becomes the
Alternate Version overwriting the previous Alternate Version.
Second, restart the component using the Alternate Version just downloaded. You can set this to occur
automatically after the download, or you can use the manual restart. Upon restart, the Alternate
Version becomes the Current (Installed) version, and the previous Current Version becomes the
Alternate Version. This arrangement provides an easy way to revert to the previous software.
When the software image is updated, all the system configuration settings are preserved. The exception
to this is the upgrade from software version 3 to software version 4, where some configuration settings,
such as the rights configurations, are not preserved.
Caution: Before updating system software, you are strongly advised to create a backup of your current
system software. See —Backing Up and Restoring the System Configuration“ on page 8-13 for details.
