Octane PROM upgrade

Octane PROM upgrade
I'm not sure on how to upgrade the PROM on my Octanes

I have found the following to upgrade the O2 so I think it will be similar

/sbin/flashinst -T -y /usr/cpu/firmware/ip32prom.image

however, when I look in that directory I find /usr/cpu/firmware/ip30prom.bin

Should I run
/sbin/flashinst -T -y /usr/cpu/firmware/ip30prom.bin 

from my 6.5.30 installed system or do I need to locate an ip30prom.image somewhere on my 6.5.30 cd's?
