UPDATE CGI Program

This CGI provides the functions to upload the binary image or configuration to the device's flash and retrieve the configuration from the device.

The are two stages of these URLs. The first stage is the URL command using HTTP GET method to send the file upload form to remote host. In the second stage, the remote host upload its image file to the device through HTTP POST method.

After the execution of the URL, the device configuration will be saved to the flash before be rebooted. The remote host has to wait for the reply message to know if the file upload process is successful or not. Please refer the return of URL for further details.

Only root could set the configuration through this SYSTEM CGI. The error message will be returned if the logon user level is not root.
