John, if you actually tell it to perform the update, does it work? I'l presume no and continue with a few more quedstions: a. can you provide a screenshot of your network configuration screen and the Platform update screen in USC? b. what model system is this?  c. in the Platform Update, View Current Versions, what does it say your Lifecycle Contrroller version is? This last one is normally unecessary, but for the username and password (under ftp address) enter anonymous and blank respectively, and let me know if it makes a difference. 
[IMAGE] Hi, Trying to do updates via FTP.DELL.COM but having trouble configuring the USC settings. All tests pass for Gateway, DNS and Proxy, but the PING test fails for 143.166.170.10 How do I go about resolving this? (If I type that ip in to IE, it goes to the ftp site fine) Thx, John Bradshaw
USC and getting to FTP.DELL.COM
