So I can directly upgrade the firmware isn't it? 

In instructions I found that the HTTPS will get disabled after the update, currently when I am trying to access the via IP only, it is redirecting to HTTPS, so I hope after upgrading, it wont happen.

    Yes, you can directly upgrade it.

     

    When it comes to accessing the admin page of the switch, you can explicitly type in http://IP_address_of_switch if typing just the IP address won't work.

     

    You can check page 262 of the user manual here if you'd like to re-enable HTTPs access.
