Once the IP address of the TFTP and the path location of the new software image file is properly
configured, you can choose to boot the switch using one of three options.
Please refer to Chapter
3, “Software Upgrade Procedure” when updating software.
• Net option :. This option allows you to try out a new image before upgrading. It requires a
TFTP filename and a server IP address to retrieve the specified image from the given IP
address. The new image will not overwrite the one in non-volatile memory.
• Net & save option .This option requires the same setup as the Net option, i.e. TFTP server and
a new image. However, it copies the image to non-volatile memory directly and then the
system boots from non-volatile memory.
• Warning : The previous image in non-volatile memory will be lost when the procedure
completes.
