Upgrading a Firmware Image Using HTTP

This section describes how to upgrade a firmware image of the AT-S105
Management software using HTTP on an Internet server. Before
downloading a new version of the AT-S105 Management Software onto
the switch with HTTP, note the following:

Note

The AT-S105 Management software is available from the Allied
Telesis web site at www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software.


Enter your hardware product model in the Search by Product
Name
field; for example, enter AT-FS750/24POE or AT-FS750/48.
Links for the latest product software and documentation are
displayed. To obtain the latest firmware image, click on the link of
the most recent version of AT-S105 Management software.

ˆ

The current configuration of the switch is retained when a new
AT-S105 software image is installed. To return a switch to its default
configuration values, see “Returning the AT-S105 Management
Software to the Factory Default Values” on page 44
.

ˆ

The switch that you are downloading the new image file to must have
an IP address and subnet mask assigned, either manually or via
DHCP. For instructions on how to set the IP address and subnet mask
on a switch, see “Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and
Gateway Address” on page 24.
To enable a DHCP client, see
“Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client” on page 28.

Caution

Downloading a new version of management software onto the
switch causes the device to reset. Some network traffic may be lost
during the reset process.

This procedure assumes that you have already obtained the software and
have stored it on the computer from which you will be performing this
procedure.

To download the AT-S105 Management software image onto the switch
using HTTP, do the following procedure:

1. From the main menu on the left side of the home page, select the

Tools folder.
