Upgrading a Summit WM Controller Using SFTP

You can upload an image file to the Summit WM Controller using Secure FTP (SFTP). The Summit WM

Controller supports any SFTP client.

NOTE

You must enable management traffic before you try to connect with a SFTP client. Specify the exact image path for

the corresponding SW package (see directory information below). Otherwise, the Summit WM Controller cannot

locate them for SW upgrades/updates.

To upload an image file:

1 Launch the SFTP client, point it to the Summit WM Controller and login in. The exact details of how

to do this will depend on the client used. The following uses putty as an example:

2 Change to the directory to receive the uploaded file:

● For AP images change to: /var/controller/images/ap/

● For Summit WM Controller images change to: /var/controller/upgrade

● For OS archives change to: /var/controller/osupgrade

3 Upload the image file using the SFTP client upload feature.
