Using a Web

Browser

Interface

You can use a web browser interface to upgrade the access points one at
a time. In other words, for each access point you want to upgrade, you
will need to establish a web browser session with it, upgrade its
software, save the new configuration, and reboot it.

To upgrade the access point software

1. Establish a web browser session with the access point you want to

upgrade.

2. From the menu bar, select Upgrade Software. The Upgrade Software

screen appears.

3. Enter the path and filename of the upgrade file (AP*WEB.BIN) or select

Browse to find the file on your PC. For example, AP180WEB.BIN.

4. Select Upgrade to start the upgrade. The upgrade may take up to

three minutes to complete.

5. When the upgrade is complete, select Save Changes and Reboot.

When the access point is done rebooting, it is upgraded to the new
software. Repeat this procedure for each access point you want to
upgrade.
