System Control Software Upgrade
Upgrading Management Software
You can upgrade the management software on the Switch using the softwareUpgrade
command on the Control menu.
Use the method outlined below to upgrade the management software on the Switch,
using the Windows 3Com TFTP Server.
Preparing for the Software Upgrade
Before you begin
Preparing the management software file
Setting up your TFTP Server
Configuring the Switch and TFTP Server IP information
Performing the Software Upgrade
Performing a TFTP upgrade via the Web Interface
Before you begin
The 3Com TFTP Server is a Microsoft Windows-only TFTP application. If you are
using another operating system (for example Macintosh or Unix), you will require a
different TFTP Server application, please refer to the instructions that accompanied
your system for further information.
The management software cannot be upgraded out-of-band over RS232 using the
TFTP protocol, because TFTP is not supported over the console port.
The management software cannot be upgraded using IPX, because TFTP/IPX
(In-band over Ethernet) protocols are not supported.
Upgrading the management software of a Switch results in a reset and causes data
to temporarily stop passing through the Switch. You should perform an upgrade
when your network is inactive, or you should notify users that the network will
temporarily be offline. Users should save their work and exit before the upgrade
begins.
Ensure that the Switch that you are upgrading and the workstation which is
running the TFTP Server application are on the same IP subnet or have a route
between them.
Downgrading your Switch to an older version of management software is not
recommended. It may introduce faults that have been fixed in the latest release of
software.
When the management software is upgraded the Switch will retain all currently
configured settings.
Preparing the management software file
1. The executable file containing the management software to upgrade the Switch
may be supplied on the CD-ROM that accompanies your Switch.
3Com recommends that you use the latest version of management software from
the 3Com website:
