Installing firmware newer than the version specified for the switch hardware may prevent the switch from operating correctly with a Just Add Power configuration.
Overview
Uploading a switch configuration file might be done for any of these reasons:
- Copying the configuration from a defective switch into the replacement switch
- Running AMP and loading the Discovery Configuration file
These instructions will fit any of these situations.
Minimum Switch Firmware
TP-Link switches have minimum firmware that must be loaded on the switch to be compatible with AMP systems. Please update switch firmware to the minimum version listed below:

Important: TP-Link Model Names
TP-Link switch models with and without the TL- prefix are different hardware models. When checking firmware compatibility, match the complete model name and hardware version exactly as shown in the table.
Identify Hardware Version
The minimum firmware version must be matched to the hardware version of the switch. There are 2 ways to find the hardware version of the switch:
- The label on the bottom of the switch shows the model number and the hardware version

- The webUI lists the hardware version on the System --> System Info --> System Summary menu

Walkthrough
- Login to the switch webUI by going to the current IP address
- Default IP is 192.168.0.1 /24 or DHCP on your network
- Default username/password is admin/admin
- Just Add Power config files use username/password: admin/tplink
- Check the firmware version on the switch to confirm it is at the minimum firmware version according to the table above.
- (Optional) To update firmware
- Download the appropriate firmware from the TP-Link website. IMPORTANT: Firmware must match the Hardware Version of the switch. Each Hardware Version may have a different Firmware Version to upload, and uploading the wrong firmware could damage the switch!
- Go to System Tools --> Firmware Upgrade and upload the firmware file. Be sure to check the box that says Reboot the switch using the backup image after upgrading is completed.

- To run AMP, the switch must meet minimum firmware requirements.
- Once firmware is on a compatible version, go to System Tools --> Restore Config on the left menu.

- In the Configuration File field, click Browse and navigate to the configuration file.
- Check the box for Reboot the switch to validate the configuration after the restore is complete.
- Click Import to upload the new switch config.

- Done! The switch will reboot with the new config file uploaded.
Note: The Username/Password on an AMP VLAN Discovery Configuration file is admin/tplink
Troubleshooting: No Matrix Control
Symptoms
- Matrix Control through switching driver does not work, even though it is properly configured
- Standardized AMP functions do not work properly
- Test Switching
- Read System
- Add Device On-Site
- Edit Switch IP
- Update Only
Cause
When AMP was run to setup the system, the TP-Link switch was not on minimum firmware.
Solution
- Update firmware on the switch to the minimum firmware.
- Then, re-upload the final switch configuration.
- If you have the PC that ran AMP originally, open AMP and go to the top-left menu. Select File --> Open Projects Folder. Then navigate to the Project Name and Switch Configs. The file you need begins with jp. Use the webUI of the TP-Link switch to upload the jp file.
- If you DO NOT have the PC that ran AMP originally, you will need to re-run Configure from the beginning to get the final switch configuration file.
