Abstract:
An electronic apparatus and a firmware update method thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a firmware storage device, a microcontroller and a network interface module. Firmware is stored in the firmware storage device, and the microcontroller is coupled to the firmware storage device. The network interface module is coupled to the microcontroller, receives a packet from a remote server via a network, and determines whether the packet conforms to a specific format by determining whether the packet is a Wake-on-LAN packet and whether the packet includes a firmware update command. If the packet conforms to the specific format, the microcontroller obtains firmware update data provided by the remote server through the network interface module, to refresh the firmware stored in the firmware storage device by using the firmware update data.

Claim (Index 8):
A firmware update method adapted to an electronic apparatus, the electronic apparatus comprising a firmware storage device, a network interface module and a microcontroller, the firmware update method comprising:\n receiving, by the network interface module, a packet from a remote server; determining, by the network interface module, whether the packet conforms to a specific format by determining whether the packet is a Wake-on-LAN packet and comprises a firmware update command; if the packet is the Wake-on-LAN packet and comprises the firmware update command, not triggering the microcontroller to wake up the electronic apparatus but triggering, by the network interface module, the microcontroller to update the firmware, and obtaining, by the microcontroller, firmware update data provided by the remote server through the network interface module; and refreshing, by the microcontroller, firmware stored in the firmware storage device by using the firmware update data, wherein the firmware comprises a basic input/output system, and the microcontroller comprises an embedded controller configured to manage a power state of a computer system.
