Using TFTP via

Telnet

To upgrade the firmware using a TFTP transfer, you must have a TFTP
server installed on your network. When you execute the UPGRADE.DNL
script file that is included with the firmware release, a TFTP transfer
copies all the startup and data files to the wireless access point.

To upgrade the firmware using a TFTP transfer, do the following:

1. Start your TFTP server.

2. Establish a Telnet session with the access point.

3. Choose the Maintenance command and then choose Command

Console.

4. Use the sdvars set serveripaddress command to specify the IP address

of the TFTP server. For example, if the server IP address is
151.60.110.241, type:

sdvars set serveripaddress 151.60.110.241
