Baseline 2924 firmware upgrade

[ahankiewicz]

Does know anythink about Firmware upgrade on the above switch.





Yesterday I tried to upgrade the firmware using Hyper Terminal - I check contections to the switch and using command line "Upgrade BRS01_00_07 bootcode"





I started to load the file but each time it timedout with a message that upgrade had failed!





Help!

Thanks

The manual (page165) "Note: The bootcode can only be upgraded using the Command Line Interface (CLI)"

I am now totally confused!

I downloaded BRS01_00_07.bin from 3Com, is the software image the file I downloaded or I am missing the point?

Help me out

The bootcode is the bootrom software; the .bin file is the operational system. You can upgrade the bootcode from console, but the .bin only through web console.

Buddy, the TFTP Server IP address is the IP address of your notebook, where the TFTP Server software needs to be installed. You can download a great and free TFTP software on this URL:

The filename is the switch software.
