System
1. Save & Reboot or Reboot: Use Save & Reboot to save the current
configuration and then reboot the Array. The LEDs on the Array indicate
the progress of the reboot, as described in “Powering Up the Wi-Fi Array”
on page 107. Alternatively, use the Reboot button to discard any
configuration changes which have not been saved since the last reboot.
2. Software Upgrade: This feature upgrades the ArrayOS to a newer
version provided by Xirrus. Enter the filename and directory location (or
click on the Browse button to locate the software upgrade file), then click
on the Upgrade button to upload the new file to the Array. Progress of the
operation will be displayed below, in the Progress section. Completion
status of the operation is shown in the Status section.
This operation does not run the new software or change any configured
values. The existing software continues to run on the Array until you
reboot, at which time the uploaded software will be used.
3. License Key: If Xirrus Customer Support provides you with a new
license key for your Array, use this field to enter it. A valid license is
required for Array operation, and it controls the features available on the
Array. If you upgrade your Array for additional features, you will be
provided with a license key to activate those capabilities.
If you attempt to enter an invalid key, you will receive an error message
and the current key will not be replaced.

If you have difficulty upgrading the Array using the WMI, see “Upgrading
the Array via CLI” on page 409 for a lower-level procedure you may use.
Software Upgrade always uploads the file in binary mode. If you transfer
any image file to your computer to have it available for the Software Upgrade
command, it is critical to remember to transfer it (ftp, tftp) in binary mode!
