If you want to update firmware code, you must get the image file from FTP Server.
Suppose that the FTP Server IP address is 172.16.10.219 and the image filename is ‘vmlinux_
patton0.74B04’.
Example:
1. Enter the following commands in order to update the firmware for Model 3124.
Current Version:0.74B04
Partition Version Date Status

1 0.74B03 2007/10/12 --
2 0.74B04 2007/10/26 Active
Note
The ‘Active’status of the firmware partition information means the
active partition for next time restart, not current running partition.
You can see which partition by referring to the Current Version.
2. The Model 3124 provides two firmware memory partitions. If you want to change the firmware partition
for booting, use the following commands (if you change to the non-active partition, system will restart
immediately):
