When you upload a firmware image, the device will have to verify the validity of that image. If the verification was a success, you will be redirected to window with a message such as this:

This means that the uploaded firmware image is compatible with your device. The indication also displays the file's {{#ifeq:{{{series}}} | TRB14x | MD5 and SHA256 checksums | MD5 checksum}}. A <b>checksum</b> is a sequence of hexadecimal symbols generated after running an algorithm called a cryptographic hash function on a file. Calculating a checksum and comparing it with the one provided by the file source can be used as a file authenticity check method. A list of {{#ifeq:{{{name}}} | RUT850 | {{{name}}} | {{{series}}}}} firmware checksums can be found <b>[[{{#ifeq:{{{series}}} | TRB14x | {{{name}}} Firmware checksum list | {{{name}}}_Firmware_Downloads}}|here]]</b>.
