NetStructure™ 480T Routing Switch User Guide
If you make a mistake, or find you must revert to the configuration
as it was before you started making changes, you can set the switch
to use the secondary configuration on the next reboot.
If the switch is rebooted
during a configuration
save, the switch boots to
factory default settings.
The configuration in the
process of being saved is
unaffected.
To save the configuration, use this command:
save {configuration} {primary | secondary}
To use the configuration, use this command:
use configuration [primary | secondary]
The configuration takes effect on the next reboot.
Upgrading Your Switch
To upgrade your 480T
routing switch you may
need to upgrade the
BootROM image and the
firmware. Refer to the Late
Breaking News document
at http://support.intel.com.
The image file contains the factory-installed executable code or
program that runs on the switch. As new versions of the image are
released, you should upgrade the firmware and the BootROM
image running on your switch.
The images are upgraded by using a download procedure from a
TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) server on the network your
switch is connected to.
To upgrade the switch, you must:
1. Save your configuration to the TFTP server.
2. Download the new BootROM and reboot your switch.
3. Download the new firmware and reboot your switch.
4. Restore your configuration from the TFTP server.
Since the switch stores both a primary and a secondary
configuration, you can upgrade the firmware into the primary
configuration, while retaining the older versions in the secondary
configuration in case of problems in the upgrade process.
Starting a TFTP Server
The switch ships with Intel Device View (see Using Intel
®
Device
View for information about installing and using Intel Device View).
To activate the TFTP server, choose Tools and then choose TFTP
Server.
