Often firmware is low level code for your hardware devices, but sometimes the ESXi hypervisor is called "firmware". A bit confusing in my opinion and I think VMware has mostly dropped that title.

HI Nagarjuna.. Venkat here..

Firmware is used for hardware... so vmware recommends to upgrade to altest firm for your esx server.

So you can install firmware in 2methods.

1) cd/DVD from vendor

2) online
