SolarWinds) used for the firmware upgrade. This option
displays when the user selects the Use an external
firmware file option.

None Enter the name of the firmware file that needs to be
uploaded. Ensure that the firmware file is in the TFTP root
directory. If you are using a non-external server, you
select Choose File to find your local copy of the file.

upload. Note that this field is only available for certain
Firmware File Types (for example, Symbol 4121).

and you are upgrading from version 3.0 to 3.1, then
browse to the path where the patch file is located.

None If you specified a Cisco WLC device as the Firmware File
Type, then also enter the boot software version.
Table 30: Supported Firmware Versions and Features Fields and Default Values (Continued)
Additional fields may appear for multiple device types. W-AirWave prompts you for additional firmware information as
required. For example, Intel and Symbol distribute their firmware in two separate files: an image file and an HTML file.
Bothfiles must be uploaded to W-AirWave for the firmware to be distributed successfully via W-AirWave.
6. Select Add to import the firmware file.
To delete a firmware file that has already been uploaded to W-AirWave, return to the Device Setup > Upload
Firmware & Files page, select the checkbox for the firmware file and select Delete.
A firmware file may not be deleted if it is the desired version for a group. Use the Group > Firmware page to
investigate this potential setting and status.
Using Web Auth Bundles in W-AirWave
Web authentication bundles are configuration files that support Cisco WLC wireless LAN controllers. This
procedure requires that you have local or network access to a Web Auth configuration file for Cisco WLC devices.
Perform these steps to add or edit Web Auth bundles in W-AirWave.
1. Go to the Device Setup > Upload Firmware & Files page.
2. Click Add by the New Web Auth Bundle option. This page displays any existing Web Auth bundles that are
currently configured in W-AirWave, and allows you to add or delete Web Auth bundles.
3. Select Add to create a new Web Auth bundle (see Figure 22), or select the pencil icon next to an existing
bundle to edit. You may also delete Web Auth bundles by selecting that bundle with the checkbox, and
selecting Delete.
