If Cisco makes an upgrade file available on a Cisco website, you must download
the upgrade file to your PC and then transfer it to the Cisco IPICS server.
After you place the upgrade file on the server, you can choose to use the graphical
installer utility to perform the upgrade or you can perform the upgrade remotely,
using the console option.

When you transfer the upgrade file to the Cisco IPICS server, you place the file in
the root directory, where you can access it from the server or from a remote
location on the network.
To download the file from a website and transfer it to the server, perform the
following procedure:
