ware with a new version.
The Software Download Configuration section of the Configura-
tion web page defines the parameters for software updates.
Figure 22: Software Download Configuration Section
The following parameters can be set:
Server running the TFTP protocol to allow the software updates of the
HiPath AP 1140.
Note: See
"Appendix A – DHCP Server Vendor Specific Information"
on page 95
for more details.
Name of the new software file. It can have up to 50 alphanumeric
characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9). Spaces and dots are allowed.
In order to download the software into the HiPath AP 1140, you
must have a TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server running
on the PC designated as the software file server. This application
will let you download the new software into your HiPath AP 1140.
If you don't have a TFTP server, you can download "Pumpkin"
(one of the best and fastest TFTP servers available) at
www.klever.net/kin/pumpkin.html#technical.
1. Install the TFTP application on the PC designated as the
software file server and run it.
2. From the main screen of Pumpkin, go into the Options
menu and configure the path of the new .bin application
file location.
