Upgrading the firmware
As new versions of the Gateway 7001 Series self-managed AP firmware become available, 
you can upgrade the firmware on your access points to take advantages of new features 
and enhancements.
To upgrade the firmware on a particular access point:
1
Select the access point to upgrade from the Administration Web page, then click 
Advanced > Upgrade
. The Upgrade firmware page for the chosen access point opens.
2
If you know the path to the new firmware image file, type it in the textbox. Otherwise, 
click Browse and locate the firmware image file.
3
Click 
Update
 to apply the new firmware image.
Important
You must do this for each access point. You cannot 
upgrade firmware automatically across the cluster.
Keep in mind that a successful firmware upgrade restores 
the access point configuration to the factory defaults. (See
