Firmware Download
The 6700 Series NMS gives you the capability of downloading firmware updates
directly from your PC. This chapter provides procedures for downloading
firmware updates to devices from the PC.
The ADp Download Firmware feature is available for COMSPHERE 3800 and
3900 Series devices. This feature allows you to download firmware updates to
these devices directly from the 6700 Series NMS on your PC.
All the selected local devices are downloaded first (via broadcast). The remote
devices are downloaded by their controlling devices. Multiple local devices can
download to their remote devices simultaneously, but a single control device can
only download to one remote device at a time.
Procedure
1. Select the Download Firmware icon in the toolbar. The Download Firmware
window appears.
The Firmware Revisions list box displays all available firmware revisions you
have stored in a special Firmware directory.
2. Select the desired firmware revision from the Firmware Revisions list box.
