    As I spend a good hour trying to figure out how to upgrade an AP through the console port in apboot mode. Although I could find bits and pieces searching the web and this forum it took me some time to figure it out. Below the steps:

    Step 1: Hit <Enter> to stop autoboot:  0
    enter
    Step 2: Set Static IP address
    setenv ipaddr 10.254.254.7 
    Step 3: Set subnet mask
    setenv netmask 255.255.255.0
    Step 4: Set next hop
    setenv gatewayip 10.254.254.1
    Step 5: Set boot parameter to TFTP
    setenv bootcmd tftpboot 
    Step 6: Set IP address of TFTP server
    setenv serverip 192.168.25.250
    Step 7: Print your settings to validate
    printenv
    Step 8: Upgrade the OS replace OS file with whatever you require
    upgrade os ArubaOS_Draco_10.4.1.3_90100 
    Reload and you are done
    Below an old article, which did only partially suffice for me
