How to download new firmware to SXP1216WM-A and SXP1224WM-A Web Managable switch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Note: A) The switch must already have at least firmware v2.00 to
be able to enable the Upload firmware festure.
If you have a version lower than v2.00, contact your nearest
dealer or distributor to have it upgraded.
B) This firmware DOES NOT apply to SXP1216WM or SXP1224WM
1) Power OFF switch. Set the DIP sw pin #1 and #2 to DOWN(OFF) position.
2) Power ON switch. Within the first 30 second, set DIP sw pin #1 to UP(ON) position.
* Note: If after 30 seconds and DIP pin not set, the main code
will load and normal web management page will start.
3) When Upload Firmware page is activated, the switch will take on the following defaults:
o - Management port IP addr = 192.168.100.128
Subnet MAsk = 255.255.255.0
o - No password to logon.
So the PC will have to set to an IP address 192.168.100.xxx where xxx can be
any number from 1 to 254 except 128
4) To access the management port do one of the following:
1) Use a cross-over UTP cable and connect from PC directly to the switch management
port at the back

Then use another straight-through connect the PC to any of the 24 front ports.
5) Startup the web browser at the PC. Enter the switch IP address.
6) When connected, the firmware upload page will display.

Click Update to start the upload.
7) After a about 1 minute, an upload message will display.
Reboot the switch then verify the new firmware is running.
