ATTO Technology Inc. iPBridge Installation and Operation Manual
 4  Updating firmware
Several processors control the flow of data in the ATTO iPBridge 2700. The firmware to control these 
processors can easily be upgraded in the field using the ATTO ExpressNAV interface or the PUT 
command from an FTP connection. The ATTO ExpressNAV method is preferred.
Preliminary steps
1
The iPBridge firmware is distributed as a 
compressed .zip file and can be obtained from 
the ATTO Technology, Inc. web site at 
www.attotech.com
 or from the CD included with 
your iPBridge.
2
Uncompress the 
.zip file into an image file 
(
.ima). Note the filename.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Before beginning this procedure, ensure 
that all I/O to the iPBridge has stopped.
During this procedure, do not interrupt the 
flash process. 
Do not power down the host or the 
iPBridge until the display returns the 
Ready prompt. 
Interrupting the flash process will make 
your iPBridge inoperable and you will have 
to return it to ATTO Technology for repair.
Note
The recommended management tool for the 
iPBridge is ATTO ExpressNAV.

1
Connect to ExpressNAV (refer to

the 
Firmware page.

unzipped in the preliminary steps.
3
Click

Click on 
Restart.
Using FTP over GbE 
1
Establish an FTP link to the bridge that is to be 
flashed. 
2
Use  the 
PUT command to download the 
firmware you unzipped in the preliminary steps. 
For example
c:\bridge_firmware\I25i0300.ima

Once the download is complete, cycle power on 
the iPBridge or use the 
FirmwareRestart CLI 
command.
