copy application
The
copy application
command, in Privileged (Enable) mode, downloads a new software
version to the switch.
The image file contains the executable code that runs on the switch. It comes preinstalled
from the factory. As new versions of the image are released, you should upgrade the software
that is running on your system. The image is upgraded by using a download procedure from a
TFTP server on the network.
The primary application becomes secondary and stores the new image as a primary when you
use the option
leave-primary-sw
.
For more information about the dual boot feature, primary and secondary application of the
switch, refer to the "System Lodaer" chapter.
