04 – How do I upgrade the firmware via the web interface?

Answer

  1. Purpose: To upgrade SX firmware version for enhanced features or
    service patches.
  2. Check Raritan support website for availability of latest firmware
    version: (http://www.raritan.com/support/firmwareupgrades and look
    for SX under Dominion Family)
  3. Download the new SX firmware stored as UpgradePack from Raritan
    support website to an FTP server (for example, a FileZilla server),
    assuming that FTP server has an IP address of 192.168.51.204.

    Extract the zip file to a folder under FTP root directory, for example:

    \home\downloads\firmware\UpgradePack_2.5.6_3.1.0.5.2\Pack1of1.
    Make sure the folder is accessible by an FTP user account that you
    have.
  4. Log in to the SX through a web browser. Choose Maintenance >
    Firmware Upgrade. Enter FTP server IP address (for example,
    192.168.51.204), FTP username and password, and the FTP folder
    path where the extracted files are stored (in this example:

    /UpgradePack_2.5.6_3.1.0.5.2\Pack1of1), and click Upgrade.
  5. After firmware upgrade is completed, log in to SX and check the
    firmware version again from: Maintenance > Firmware Version. You
    can also check firmware upgrade history to make sure: Maintenance
    > Firmware Upgrade History.
