Tools to build firmware binary image for D-Link DNS-323

Tags: d-link, dns-323, firmware

I finally got D-Link DNS-323 firmware pack/unpack scripts running.

We're talking about this device (russian page).

There are some sites about modifying this device firmware. What they lack is tools and information about building own firmware binary image to flash device through its web-interface.

Alas D-Link doesn't publish firmware building tools, only source code for used software.

Fortunately such tools are available for Conceptronic CH3SNAS which is built upon similar hardware and software.

So I looked at web-interface source code of both devices and source code of firmware building tool for Conceptronic device and managed to create working firmware image parsing/building tools out of it.

You can get those tools here.

Instructions will follow.
