IDRAC6 upgrade path
I am temporarily taking care of a Dell PowerEdge T610 purchased back in 2012. Our outsourced IT department was walking me through some maintenance tasks, one of which required launching a Virtual Console through iDRAC6. Apparently my version of iDRAC6 (V1.80) is so old no modern browser fully supports it. What I have mostly works with Chrome and FireFox, not at all with IE (but that's OK - I don't work with IE either).
I am trying to determine if a firmware upgrade path exists for my hardware, and if so, what is involved. None of my searches on the Dell website have relevant results. Since my system is out of warranty I'm not getting much help via telephoning, and "chat" is denied to me as well.
If someone can point me to a good place to get started that would be a big help. Thanks!

Hi, and thanks for the quick followup. The server BIOS version is 6.1.0

I have a similar issue with an r310 on bios 1.8.2 and idrac 1.92.05 I was wondering if anyone has the order for these. The oldest bios i see on the support page is 1.12 and i dont know if i can hop all the way there.
Thanks
