8. Working with Software Images
The system can store up to two software images in FLASH. The image selected for bootup is
termed the Active image, while the other is termed the Alternate image.
It is possible to swap the Active and Alternate image, and it is possible to
upgrade
to a new
Active image. A swap simply switches the Active and Alternate designation on each image
and reboots the system.
A firmware upgrade performs these steps:
Download new firmware using TFTP/HTTP/HTTPS/FTP and verify suitability for the
system
Overwrite the current Alternate image with the newly downloaded image
Swap Active and Alternate and reboot
The result is that the old Active build becomes the Alternate, and the newly downloaded
image Active.
The relevant commands are:
show version firmware
swap
firmware upgrade
