Locate Device

Click the Locate Device icon to flash the System LED on

the EdgeSwitch so you can locate it. It will quickly flash

blue until you click the Locate Device icon again.

Upgrade Firmware

Note: We recommend that you back up your current

system configuration before updating the firmware.

The EdgeSwitch firmware update is compatible with

all configuration settings. The system configuration is

preserved while the EdgeSwitch is updated with a new

firmware version.

Click the Upgrade Firmware icon to locate the new

firmware file. Select the file and then click Open to update

the firmware.

During the firmware update, the System LED on the

EdgeSwitch will alternate between blue and white.

If the firmware update is in process, you can close the

EdgeSwitch Configuration Interface, but this does not

cancel the firmware update.

While the firmware update is in process, please be patient,

as the firmware update routine can take three to seven

minutes. You cannot access the EdgeSwitch until the

firmware update routine is completed.

WARNING: Do not power off, do not reboot, and

do not disconnect the EdgeSwitch from the power

supply during the firmware update process as

these actions will damage the EdgeSwitch!

Reboot Device

Click the Reboot Device icon to initiate a full reboot cycle

of the device. You will be prompted to confirm; click OK

to proceed with the reboot or click Cancel to cancel the

reboot.

Reboot is the same as the hardware reboot, which is

similar to the power-off and power-on cycle. The system

configuration stays the same after the reboot cycle

completes. Any changes that have not been applied

arelost.
