The LoadMaster firmware can be updated with a firmware patch file via Orchestrator. Before uploading the firmware patch file to the LoadMaster, first it must be uploaded to Orchestrator. For step-by-step instructions on how to upload a file, refer to the Upload Files section.

After a firmware patch file has been uploaded to Orchestrator, run the Install Patch workflow to update the LoadMaster.
