Maintaining the NSS Upgrading the NSS Firmware 7 • The firmware must be installed in a specific order if upgrading within a virtualized setup. CAUTION: When you upgrade the firmware, ! avoid using a wireless connection to the NSS as wireless connections can be unreliable and cause image corruption. Do not interrupt the power during the firmware upgrade. The system reboots after the firmware upgrade is completed. Wait until the Power LED goes back to solid green before you log in and use the configuration interface. To upgrade the firmware: STEP 1 Back up the system configuration file on a USB flash device before you upgrade the firmware. It is a good idea to back up the configuration file daily. STEP 2 Download the latest image from the support website to your local computer. STEP 3 From the Manager Menu, click Admin Maintenance. The System Details page appears. STEP 4 In the Firmware image file: field, either enter the location of the firmware file, or click Browse to locate it. Cisco Small Business NSS2000 Series Administration Guide 123
