Dual Image Configuration
The system maintains two versions of the GS700TR Smart Switch software in permanent storage.
One image is the active image, and the second image is the backup image. The active image is
loaded during subsequent switch restarts. This feature reduces switch down time when upgrading/
downgrading the GS700TR Smart Switch software.
The system running an older software version will ignore (not load) a configuration file created by
the newer software version. When a configuration file created by the newer software version is
discovered by the system running an older version of the software, the system will display an
appropriate warning to the user.
Use the Dual Image Configuration page to set the boot image.
