Firmware Upgrade Recovery

There are basically two conditions that call for
firmware upgrade recovery:

• When you begin a firmware upgrade, but decide

not to proceed with it.

• When the Mainboard firmware upgrade fails.

Note: If one of the cascaded switches fails to
upgrade successfully, unplug it from the installation
and perform the recovery and upgrade operation
independently. After it has been successfully
upgraded, plug it back into the installation.
To perform a firmware upgrade recovery, do the
following:

3. Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable (provided with

this unit), to connect to a serial port on your
computer with the Firmware Upgrade Port of the
switch.

4. Plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.

5. Follow the upgrade procedures that begin with the

Starting the Upgrade

section (p. 39).

6. After the upgrade completes successfully, unplug

the switch’s power adapter cable, once again.

7. Slide the

Firmware Upgrade Recovery Switch

back

to the Normal position.
