Firmware Versions 1.0.9 & 2.3.0

Flash firmware allows ePipe units to be updated in the field to newer versions of firmware as they are released.  The firmware is stored permanently in the unit's flash memory. There are now two versions of the firmware available for the 2000 family .

What is my current firmware revision?

To see the current firmware revision and the model of your ePipe unit, using the browser-based ePipe Management Assistant go to

Help->About

Alternatively, access the ePipe command line interface using the ePipe console port or a telnet client and run the following command:

You will only need to know the model of your ePipe unit if you are downloading using a TFTP server (see below).
