Managing a DSR web server device

While not as powerful as the DSView 3 software, the DSR web server provides several
configuration options to tailor the DSR2035/8035 switch to your specific application.
Upgrading DSRIQ modules
The DSRIQ Flash upgrade feature allows you to update DSRIQ modules with the latest firmware
available. This update can be performed using the DSR web server, DSView 3 software or the
OSCAR interface.
After the Flash memory is reprogrammed with the upgrade, the DSR2035/8035 switch performs a
soft reset, which terminates all DSRIQ module sessions. A target device experiencing a DSRIQ
module firmware update may not display, or may display as disconnected. The target device will
appear normally when the Flash update is completed.
NOTE: Check www.avocent.com
NOTE: DSRIQ modules are automatically updated when the DSR2035/8035 switch is updated. To update your
DSR2035/8035 switch firmware, see Appendix A on page 81 or the DSView 3 Software Online Help.
for firmware upgrade files.
