Firmware Recovery
The WAP device has a firmware recovery feature that enables the restoration of a
valid image on the WAP device after a failed download. If the power goes down
during an image download, the WAP device might not be able to boot. In this
event, although the image is not usable, the boot loader file that loads the firmware
image from flash memory to RAM should continue to be functional. An HTTP
server is embedded in the boot loader file, enabling the administrator to connect
to the WAP device over the LAN port and use a web browser to download and
install a new firmware image.
