THE FOLLOWING IS WHAT WE HAVE IN THE COBOS MASTER:
Obtaining Firmware
You can 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).
Reloading Firmware
Note: For details on upgrading to version 6.1.0.0 from pre-6.1.0.0, see the Product
Name Upgrade Notice on the Lantronix ftp site (ftp.lantronix.com).
There are several ways to update the unit's internal operational code (*.ROM): using
DeviceInstaller (the preferred way), using TFTP, or using the serial port. You can also
update the unit's internal Web interface (*.COB) using TFTP or DeviceInstaller.
Here are typical names for those files. Check the Lantronix web site for the latest
versions and release notes.

Please refer to the DeviceInstaller online Help for information about reloading
firmware using DeviceInstaller. The other methods are discussed below.
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 to WEB6 for the internal Web interface.
For firmware releases 6.1 and later, the TFTP destination files for Product Name-
01, Product Name-03, and Product Name 485 are X4, X5, and X6, respectively.
