Managing the Access Point

Upgrading the Firmware

You can use the Web interface to check for software updates/upgrades for the

firmware built into the AP. You can then apply these updates to the AP in one of two

ways: (1) manual updating on an as-needed basis or (2) automating a regularly

scheduled update.

Before starting, decide which option you want to take:

■ Automate a regularly scheduled update

■ Run a one-time manual update right now

By default, the automatic upgrade option is disabled.

To get started with upgrading the firmware, go to Maintenance > Upgrade. When

the Maintenance > Upgrade options appear, decide which upgrade method to use.

Each of the upgrade options listed on the Upgrade page are discussed in the

succeeding sections.
