You can upgrade the firmware of your WLA-5000AP v3 (the software that controls your WLA-5000AP v3’s

problems that you have encountered with the current version. System upgrade can be performed through the
System Upgrade window as follows:
Step 1 Select System Tools, then Firmware Upgrade from the menu.
Step 2 To update the WLA-5000AP v3 firmware, first download the firmware from the distributor’s web site
to your local disk, and then from the above screen enter the path and filename of the firmware file (or
click Browse to locate the firmware file). Next, Click the Upgrade button to start.
The new firmware will be loaded to your WLA-5000AP v3. After a message appears telling you that the
operation is completed, you need to reset the system to have the new firmware take effect.

encountered.
