Module Firmware Update - Hirschmann NetModule NB2800 User Manual

Attention
In case you perform a major downgrade with a previous release line (e.g. 3.7.0 to 3.6.0),
please ensure to always use the latest release of that branch (i.e. 3.6.0.X) as only those
tend to be fully forward-compatible. Also keep in mind, that some hardware features may
not work (e.g. if not implemented in that version). In doubt, please consult our support
team.
A software image can be either uploaded via the Web Manager or retrieved from a specific URL. It
will be unpacked and deployed to a spare partition which gets activated if the update completed suc-
cessfully. The whole procedure is accompanied by all green LEDs flashing up, the subsequent system
reboot gets denoted by a slowly blinking Status LED. The backuped configuration will be applied at
bootup and the Status LED will blink faster during this operation. Depending on your configuration,
this may take a while.
