Update firmware and Boot/POST Code
The firmware and/or boot/POST code for a Digi device can be updated from a file on a PC or
through TFTP. The recommended method is to download the firmware to a local hard drive. TFTP
is supported for those using UNIX systems. Both the firmware and the boot/POST code are
updated using the same set of steps.The Digi device automatically determines the type of image
being uploaded. Before uploading the firmware or the boot/POST code, it is very important to read
the Release Notes supplied with the firmware to check if the boot/POST code must be updated
before updating the firmware.
Prerequisites
These procedures assume that:
A firmware file has already been downloaded from digi.com.
If using TFTP, that the TFTP server is running.

page is displayed.
2 Enter the name of the firmware or POST file in the Select Firmware edit box, or click
