I want to upgrade the firmware on the x1052P switches and read it needs to be done in CLI. However whenever I connect the cable and use PUTTY - PUTTY just dings and I click Open.
Using a windows 7 laptop and installing the drivers for the switch located in the firmware zip file (3.0.0.91) COM4 appears when I connect the cable. I DID NOT connect the cable before installing the drivers. However I did notice windows going to windows update for more drivers. When I check COM4 drivers is shows the FTDI drivers.
I open Putty 64 bit and select serial, COM4, 9600, 8, 1, N, N and change terminal to VT100+. When I click Open is Dings. Nothing happens.
My guess is WIndows screwed up the drivers even tho I had preinstalled the CDM drivers from the 3.0.0.91 zip file.
How do I fix?
