Hello! I am a student studying STM32.
First of all, thank you very much for your help.
First of all, my main concern is that I would like to update the firmware on a board that has the G491RE mounted on it.
However, we do not have an external ST-LINK, and only have a Nucleo-F411 board.
Is there any way to use the Nucleo-F411 as an ST-LINK? Or is it possible to obtain the ST-LINK firmware?

Most of Nucleo64 boards (the ones with "detachable" top part, including Nucleo-F411) may be used for programming off-board MCUs. Read the Nucleo board's manual; you need to remove two jumpers from "ST-LINK" header and connect at least GND, SWDIO and SWCLK available on the built-in ST-Link "SWD" header to the target MCU (NRST connection may also be useful).
