Upgrading Firmware
You can upgrade new access point software from a local file on the management
workstation, or from an FTP or TFTP server. New software may be provided
periodically from your distributor.
After upgrading new software, you must reboot the access point to implement the
new code. Until a reboot occurs, the access point will continue to run the software
it was using before the upgrade started. Also note that new software that is
incompatible with the current configuration automatically restores the access
point to the factory default settings when first activated after a reboot.
