9.40.1:F6
Added support for automatic firmware rollback verfication. The user can chose to
select this option prior to performing an firmware upgrade. When chosen, the
product will perform the upgrade and then wait a pre-defined time for the user
to acknowledge the upgrade in the web-interface. If not acknowledged in time,
the product will rollback to its previous firmware.

password of the root user must be set first in order to initialize VAPIX and
ONVIF interfaces to allow further configuration.
This change only affects products in its factory defaulted state, products that
are already deployed in production systems are not affected by this update until
factory defaulted. For more information please see
