This chapter explains how to obtain and update the unit’s firmware.
Obtaining Firmware
Obtain the most up-to-date firmware and release notes for the unit from the Lantronix
web site (www.lantronix.com
) or by using anonymous FTP (ftp.lantronix.com/pub).
Reloading Firmware
There are several ways to update the unit’s internal operational code (*ROM) via
TFTP or via the serial port. You can also update the unit’s internal web interface
(*COB) via TFTP.
Here are typical names for those files. Check the Lantronix web site for the latest
versions and release notes.

Using TFTP: Graphical User Interface
To download new firmware from a computer:
1. Use a TFTP client to send a binary file to the unit (*.ROM to upgrade the unit's
internal operational code and *.COB to upgrade its internal Web interface).
Note: TFTP requires the .ROM (binary) version of the unit's internal
operational code.
2. In the TFTP server field, enter the IP address of the unit being upgraded.
3. Select Upload operation and Binary format.
4. Enter the full path of the firmware file in the Local file name field.
5. In the Remote file name field, enter the current internal operational code or
WEB1 for the internal Web interface.
6. Click the Upload Now button to transfer the file to the unit.
