3.) Click Upgrade to apply the new rmware image.
Upon clicking Upgrade for the rmware upgrade, a popup conrmation window is displayed that describes the
upgrade process.
4.) Click OK to conrm the upgrade and start the process.
Note: The rmware upgrade process begins once you click Upgrade and then OK in the popup
conrmation window.
The upgrade process may take several minutes during which time the access point will be unavailable. Do not
power down the access point while the upgrade is in process. When the upgrade is complete, the access point
restarts. The AP resumes normal operation with the same conguration settings it had before the upgrade.
5.) To verify that the rmware upgrade completed successfully, check the rmware version shown on the Upgrade
page (or the Basic Settings page). If the upgrade was successful, the updated version name or number is
indicated.
Packet Capture Conguration and Settings
Wireless packet capture operates in two modes:
•) Capture le mode.
•) Remote capture mode.
For capture le mode, captured packets are stored in a le on the Access Point. The AP can transfer the le to a TFTP
server. The le is formatted in pcap format and can be examined using tools such as Wireshark and OmniPeek.
For remote capture mode, the captured packets are redirected in real time to an external PC running the Wireshark
®
tool.
The AP can capture the following types of packets:
•) 802.11 packets received and transmitted on radio interfaces. Packets captured on radio interfaces include the
802.11 header.
•) 802.3 packets received and transmitted on the Ethernet interface.
•) 802.3 packets received and transmitted on the internal logical interfaces such as VAPs and WDS interfaces.
From the Packet Capture Conguration and Settings page, you can:
•) View the current packet capture status.
•) Congure packet capture parameters.
•) Congure packet le capture.
•) Congure a remote capture port.
•) Download a packet capture le.
