5.6 Firmware Upgrade
System tools >> Firmware Upgrade
You can upgrade the firmware of your WLA-9000AP (the software that controls your
WLA-9000AP’s operation). Normally, this is done when a new version of firmware offers
new features that you want, or solves problems that you have encountered with the current
version. System upgrade can be performed through the System Upgrade window as
follows:
Step 1 Select System Tools, then Firmware Upgrade from the menu.
Step 2 To update the WLA-9000AP firmware, first download the firmware from the
distributor’s web site to your local disk, and then from the above screen enter the
path and filename of the firmware file (or click Browse to locate the firmware file).
Next, Click the Upgrade button to start.
The new firmware will be loaded to your WLA-9000AP. After a message appears telling you
that the operation is completed, you need to reset the system to have the new firmware
take effect.
Do not power off the device while upgrading the firmware.
It is recommended that you do not upgrade your WLA-9000AP unless
the new firmware has new features you need or if it has a fix to a
problem that you’ve encountered.
