.rom file and the .cob file:

tftp –i 192.168.1.111 put wspn_webm_1602.cob WEB1

2. In

the

Remote file name field, enter the current internal operational code or

WEB1 for the internal Web interface.

Network Upgrade

Use the command: tftp –i put W9 or
the DeviceInstaller upgrade feature. DI 4.1.0.11 and later support the WiSpan W9
destination file.

Recovering the Firmware Using the Setup port and DeviceInstaller

If for some reason the firmware is damaged, you can recover the firmware file by using
DeviceInstaller to download the *.ROM file over the setup port.

To recover firmware:

1. Connect the COM interface of your PC to the setup port of the WiSpan.
