This screen allows you to select an image file and the location from where it can be downloaded using TFTP. There are three ‘Boot from:’ options:
Net, Net & Save, and Last Saved. Please refer to Chapter 5 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.
Last Saved option
The system will boot from non-volatile memory. This option will automatically show up after the ‘Net & save’ option is selected and the unit is reset.
