This is where you select the condition under which the firmware specified under /Setup/Autoload/Network/Firmware/URL will be uploaded when the command LoadFirmware is executed.
SNMP ID: 2.60.1.1.1
Telnet path: /Setup/Autoload/Network/Firmware
Possible values:
- Unconditionally: The firmware will always be uploaded to and executed from the memory location of the inactive firmware. This setting deactivates version checking and the firmware specified will be uploaded in every case.
- If different: The firmware is uploaded to and executed from the memory location for the inactive firmware if it is of a different version to the firmware active in the device and the inactive firmware. If the specified firmware is of the same version as one of the two existing firmware versions, then the firmware will not be uploaded. The LoadFirmware command compares the firmware version (e.g. "8.10"), the release code (e.g. "RU1") and the file date.
- If newer: The firmware is uploaded and executed only if it is newer than the firmware currently active in the device. The firmware is only uploaded to the memory location for the inactive firmware if it is newer than the active and inactive firmware versions on the device. If the specified firmware is older than one of the two existing firmware versions, then it will not be uploaded.
Default: Unconditionally
Note: If the command LoadFirmware is executed twice in succession with the setting "unconditionally", both memory locations will contain the same firmware version.
