Stage
Description

The DLU process transports the new firmware image across the
network from the TFTP load host and places it into a temporary
storage buffer in the module.
This stage normally takes 1 minute to complete. However, due to
variations in network configurations (load path and traffic levels), this
stage can take 10 minutes or more.
The following states indicate that this stage is in progress:
•
Module status – cannot respond to management requests
•
LED display – normal operation
•
Setup screen display –
When the series of dots ends, the screen displays the following
message:
