Cisco RV315W Broadband Wireless VPN Router Administration Guide
The RV315W first sends a message to the upper-level NMS. The upper-level NMS
automatically gets the configuration file of the RV315W after the NMS receives the
requesting message.
During a firmware upgrade, do NOT turn off the device, shut down the PC, remove
the cable, or interrupt the process in any way until the operation is complete. This
process should take several minutes including the reboot process. Interrupting the
upgrade process at specific points when the flash is being written to can corrupt
the flash memory and render the RV315W unusable.
To upgrade the RV315W to a newer firmware:
Choose System Management > Firmware Upgrade. The Firmware Upgrade
page opens.
The following information is displayed:
•
Device Model: Displays the device model.
•
PID VID: Displays the product ID and version ID.
•
Current Firmware Version: Displays the firmware version (primary
firmware) that the RV315W is currently using.
•
Backup Firmware Version: Displays the firmware version (secondary
firmware) that is used as a backup. When you upgrade the firmware to a
newer version, the system first overwrites the secondary firmware with the
new version in the flash, and then reboots with the new firmware. The new
firmware becomes the primary firmware and the previous primary fimware
becomes the secondary firmware.
In the Download the latest firmware field, click Download to download the latest
version of the firmware from the specified website to your local PC. Make sure that
you have an active WAN connection.
In the Locate & select the upgrade file field, click Browse to locate and select the
downloaded firmware image from your local PC.
