Upgrade recommendations
========================
If you need to step up your firmware several steps, it is recommended to do an
intermediate upgrade to LTS-tracks before proceeding.
For example if the current version is 6.55 and you want to upgrade to 9.80.
Then you should do the upgrade in these steps: 6.55 => 8.40 LTS => 9.80 LTS.
Upgrade the firmware according to the instructions given in howtoupgrade.txt,
which is included in the firmware folder or at the firmware portal at
https://www.axis.com
