Upgrading

Note: Version 6.1.0.9 will support configuration migration from all previous to this version. However, if user decides to revert back to the version 5.x or older, the configuration will be lost. If the current version is 5.x, please save a copy of your current configuration in case you want to revert back to 5.x. Version 6.0 configuration will be interchangeable with 6.1.

1. Using the button below, download the firmware file. You do NOT have to unzip this file.
2. If you have not setup any special functions on the existing switch other than the management IP address, or you have saved a copy of the configuration in a text file, proceed to the next step.
   • On the existing switch, use capture mode in Hyperterminal to capture the output from the switch console to a file.
   • On the switch console, type “show run”. The output of current running configuration will be captured in the file.
   • Open the file and review the content. If there is any changes to the configuration but not present in the file, manually add them. Save the file after it is done.
3. Start a tftp server on the PC where the new images are stored. If you do not have a tftp server, you may want to try either of the following public domain tftp servers: 
   PumpKIN - http://kin.klever.net/pumpkin/ 
   Solarwind - http://support.solarwinds.net/updates/New-customerFree.cfm
4. On the switch console, type the following command:
   • # copy tftp://<tftp server IP address><image name> system:image
   • It will ask for confirm with input data displayed. Hit enter if all parameters look correct.
   • The download should take a minute or two, after that, the code will be checked for possible corruption, if not, it will report firmware successfully upgraded.
   • Reboot the switch by typing “reload” command or power cycle the switch.
5. After the switch is restarted, type the following command to verify the version is correct.
   • # show hardware
6. .If you did not skip step #1, now you can use the saved “show run” output file to restore the switch to your configuration, otherwise skip this step.
   • First enter exec mode, by enable command after you logged in.
   • Once in exec mode, paste the content of that file to the console. If there is any error during such operation, please report it to NETGEAR tech support.
   • Do a “show run” command on the console and make sure everything you expect to be there is present. If not, please report the problem to the tech support and manually add your configuration back.
7. You can now make additional configuration change for your application need. And be sure to use “copy” command to save the configuration after you’re done.
