Q. How do I upgrade the firmware of the switch via TFTP?

A. Complete these steps in order to upgrade the switch firmware via TFTP:

1. Check the model and version number at the back of the switch.

   

   Note: If there is no hardware version displayed beside the model number, the device is considered version 1.

2. Go to Cisco Software Center (registered customers only) . Cisco recommends that you perform all firmware upgrades on your local network, not remotely.

   Note: You need a registered account to login. If you do not already have one, please register at Cisco.com.
