Network Router User Manual

4. Firmware Upgrade Instructions
e GRouter device's rmware can be upgraded using p over the IP interface. is feature
allows GRouter device users to take advantage of enhancements and features that may become
available in the future.
First obtain a copy of the new rmware ROM le named *.bin, such as newrom.bin
In order to perform an update, the FTP server application must be running on the GRouter
device. is is launched by clicking the button named Launch Upgrade FTP Server in the
RouterSetup Page.
On the host computer launch an p client from the command line. Attach to the GRouter device’s
p server using its IP address in dotted notation. e format is p XX.XX.XX.XX. e user name
is case sensitive and is as follows:
GRouter
e password is blank. Set the transfer mode to binary and put the new ROM le onto the
GRouter device as image.bin. Quit the p client. At this point the GRouter device will
automatically reboot with the new rmware installed.
An example p session is shown below:
