36 Upgrading POST Code
Upgrading POST Code
This procedure shows you how to upgrade POST code using
HTTP or TFTP. Typically, POST upgrades are not required
and should only be done if the firmware release notes
indicate that this step is required.
Note: HTTP, which simply requires a web browser, is the preferred
method, and Digi recommends it. TFTP, however, is often
used in UNIX environments, so TFTP is supported as well.
Prerequisite
This procedure assumes that:
• You have already downloaded the firmware file from the
Digi web site
• TFTP is running (if you are using the TFTP option)
Procedure
1. Open a web browser and enter the device server’s IP
address in the URL window.
2. When the device server prompts you to log in, enter the
following:
• root as the user name
• The root password. The default is dbps.
3. Choose Admin > Upgrade from the main menu.
4. Follow the prompts.
