Upgrading Firmware using TFTP
The HP IP Console Switch FLASH upgrade feature enables you to update the
IP Console Switch with the latest available firmware.
To update the IP Console Switch, you need a Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
server on the terminal or PC that performs upgrades. After the TFTP has been
enabled, upgrade the FLASH firmware, then upgrade the IP Console
Switch firmware.
