Upgrading firmware
You can upgrade the firmware for either the switch or the IQ modules. The IQ
modules can be upgraded individually or simultaneously. When an appliance
upgrade is initiated, you will see a progress bar. As long as an upgrade is in
progress, you cannot initiate another.
The Enable Auto-Upgrade for all IQs checkbox allows you to enable an auto-
upgrade for IQ module firmware. You can override the auto-upgrade at any stage
using the Load Firmware button described in the next section.
