Firmware Upgrade The application software for the GS748T Smart Switch is upgradeable, enabling your switch to take advantage of improvements and additional features as they become available.

This procedure assumes that you have downloaded or otherwise obtained the firmware upgrade and that you have it available as a binary file on your computer. This procedure uses the TFTP protocol to implement the transfer from computer to switch.

Click the Maintenance tab, and then click the Firmware link directly below the tabs (see Figure 1 on page 13). 2. Select the switch to upgrade and click Download Firmware.

Note: NETGEAR recommends that you download the same image as the primary and secondary image for redundancy. 22 | Chapter 1: Getting Started
