Upgrade all AP’s firmware.
Note6-1: All configuration settings (clear, backup or restore) will be applied to the entire group. There is no
need to select specific APs to apply configuration settings. The entire group of APs have one configuration
file.
Upgrade AP Firmware
Before upgrading the AP you should prepare the firmware file to be upgraded. You can download the firmware
file and save it in the local drive of the machine you are using to connect to the Stellar AP or save the
firmware file in a remote TFTP server.
In the AP Configuration Window (Navigate: Dashboard–AP Window–AP Configuration Window), there are
separate entrances for upgrading a single AP or all the APs in a group:
1. Upgrade single AP: Select the AP to be upgraded from the AP list, click to upload firmware,
illustrated in Figure 6-6 and Figure 6-7. Generally, it takes approximately five minutes to upgrade the
AP firmware.
2. Upgrade all APs: Click on to open a dedicated upgrade page to upload separate AP
firmware for each AP model and upgrade, illustrated in Figure 6-8.
