NOTE

The access point must complete the reboot process to successfully update the device firmware,
regardless of whether the reboot is conducted using the GUI or CLI interfaces.

FAIL: establish data channel

FAIL: accept data channel

CAUTION

Users will observe a FAIL: Firmware check message if the
3.2.1.0-012R pivot image is not used when upgrading to 4.x from an image earlier than
3.2.1.0-012R. When downgrading firmware (from 4.x), ensure you have downgraded to the
3.2.1.0-012R (pivot image) first, before additional downgrades to 3.1 or 3.x. The FAIL: Firmware
check
message can also result from using an unsupported image on an Mobility 7131N model
access point.

11. Confirm the Mobility 7131 Access Point configuration is the same as it was before the firmware

update. If they are not, restore the settings. Refer to Importing/Exporting Configurations on

settings displayed on Firmware Update screen to the last saved configuration.
