Re: Upgrade 5861 to v6 firmware

The v6.0x Firmwares will have to be net booted on some 5861s as they will not fit into the smaller memory of a 1 Meg 5861s since they were made for 2 Meg 5861s.

EDITED: It looks like you have the 2 MB Flash Rapid Secure versions aka 060-5861-0xx.

»5861 Router - Firmware Release Notes v6.0.173

060-5861-0xx = 2 MB Memory units

120-5861-0xx = 1 MB Memory units

EDITED: You should read as many articles here that are available and the last article is about Netbooting only if you have any 120-5861-0xx units with the smaller Flash memory.

Hey Doc. Roy's original post says he has the 060-5861 units which according to your post have 2MB. Does he still need to net boot?

I missed that. The 060 version is supposed to be the 2 MB Rapid Secure unit and does not have to be net booted like the 120 version with only 1 MB Flash memory.
