After receiving the file, the switch compares the version number of the
new image file that you just downloaded against the file already in the
application block on the switch. If the new image file has an earlier or
the same version number as the file in the switch’s application block, it
cancels the update process. If the new image file has a newer version
number, the switch writes the file to the application block portion of
flash memory and then resets.
Caution
The switch does not forward network traffic while writing the image
to flash and during the reset process. This can take several minutes
to complete. Some network traffic may be lost.
This completes the procedure for downloading a new AT-S63 image
file onto a switch from a local management session using Xmodem.
