Firmware Update On PowerConnect 2808?
I have a PowerConnect 2808 switch that is in Managed Mode. I can connect to it through the we interface as well as through telnet but I'm just not clear how to flash the switch with the new firmware. It currently has:
| Software Version | 1.0.0.44 | |
| Boot Version | 1.0.0.13 | |
| Hardware Version | 00.00.03 |
I've downloaded the latest release (PowerConnect,2800,V1.0.0.45,A07) from the Dell web site and after extracting the files I attempted to put the file powerconnect_28xx-10045.ros on the switch using the web interface. It says the file uploaded without errors. I reboot the switch but the software verson is still at 1.0.0.44. I've read the instructions on using a TFTP server but I don't have access to one on my network and would like to know if it is possible to do the update using the web interface.
Thanks
Jeff

Thanks for the reply Daniel. I downloaded the image again and went through the same steps that I described in my origional post. After re-booting the switches they are now showing the 10045 firmware now. Thanks for your input!
