Installing Hot Fixes
NETGEAR might release hot fixes or patches if certain problems are found in any software
release. When a hot fix is available, install it immediately to ensure optimum performance of the
STM. Hot fixes might be released through NETGEAR resellers or might be available on the
NETGEAR ProSecure Web site at http://prosecure.netgear.com.
To display information about installed hot fixes, select Support > Hot Fixes from the menu The
Hot Fixes screen displays.
The Hot Fixes table displays the installed hot fixes with the following fields:
• Installed At. The date and time when the hot fix was installed on the STM.
• Component. The component for which the hot fix provides a patch.
• Base Version. The base software version for the hot fix. The hot fix cannot be installed on an
earlier or later software version, but only on the software version for which it is intended.
• Hot Fix Name. The name of the hot fix.
To install a hot fix:
1. Obtain the hot fix from NETGEAR or its authorized reseller.
2. Save the hot fix file on the computer that you will use to access the STM.
3. Log in to the STM.
4. Select Support > Hot Fixes from the menu The Hot Fixes screen displays (see Figure 7-3).
