User Guidelines
The Upgrade command prompts the user for required
information. The TFTP server IP address and the software
image file name on the server must be specified.
During the upgrade process, a series of dots appear
representing the upgrade process in the CLI interface.
When the upgrade process is completed, the command
prompt reappears.
The Dual Software Image feature is supported, therefore
the next boot after the Upgrade command will always
use the newly downloaded image.
