This chapter explains how to obtain and update the unit’s firmware.
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.
Table 11-1. Firmware Files
ROM File COB
WBXxxx.ROM WBXvx_x.COB (Web-Manager)_WNxxx.COB (Web-Manager)
Network Upgrade
Use the command: tftp –i <ip address> put <wbx rom filename> W5 or
the Device Installer upgrade feature. DI 4.0.0.4 and later support the W5 destination
file.
Serial Upgrade
Use the Advanced Recovery feature of DeviceInstaller 4.0.0.4 and later as instructed
in the DeviceInstaller Online Help.
Web Pages
Due to the extra space taken by the firmware, the number of web pages has been
reduced from 28 to 19.
Also, the start of the web pages has been moved in FLASH, requiring a reload of any
loaded web pages after the firmware upgrade. Follow regular TFTP or DeviceInstaller
procedures.
WLAN Country Setting
Due to regulations, the country-specific setting has been removed from the setup
menu and Web-Manager. We do, however, provide a separate utility for changing the
Country/Zone setting. The utility is called SetZone and is included in the package. It
is also available for download from the Lantronix web site.
