7 Firmware Upgrade The Firmware Upgrade Wizard provides a quick and easy means of installing the most current firmware on devices. The upgrade will be performed only on models that match the selected master firmware file. The master firmware file must be obtained from the administrator in advance. Firmware Upgrade is not available for all models. For a list of supported models, see the Readme file. Before performing a firmware upgrade, TCP ports 800-810 must be available and not blocked by a firewall.
