Detailed procedure
A
Software installation
Use the instructions in this section to install the software after installing a Layer 3 upgrade DIP key.
Before installing the software
Note the following prior to installing the software:
•
The device must have an IP address. If the device does not already have an IP address,
configure one by entering the ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask> or ipv6 address
<ipv6-prefix>/<prefix-length> command at the global CONFIG level of the CLI for Layer 2
images, or at the Interface level of the CLI for base Layer 3 and full Layer 3 images. For more
detailed instructions, refer to the
FastIron Configuration Guide
.
•
If an incorrect DIP key or no DIP key is installed, the switch will boot up on the Layer 2 or base
Layer 3 software image. It will not boot up on the full Layer 3 software image.
•
Except for IPv6 host and management features, the DIP key part number SX-FIL3U-6-IPV6 runs
the supported IPv6 routing protocols and features.
•
Before removing a DIP key (if you are not going to replace it with another one), Brocade
recommends that you first install the Layer 2 or base Layer 3 software image, since the system
will not boot up on the full Layer 3 software image after a DIP key is removed. If desired, prior
to removing the DIP key, enter the boot system tftp CLI command into the startup configuration
to allow the system to boot the Layer 2 or base Layer 3 software image from a TFTP server.
Alternatively, you could enter the boot system tftp command from the boot monitor.
NOTE
To reboot the device from a TFTP server through a
fiber
connection, use the CLI command boot
system tftp <ip-address> <filename> fiber-port.
Installing the software
Follow the steps to install the software.
1. Copy the Layer 3 software from kp.foundrynet.com onto a TFTP server to which the device has
network access. If you are not sure which software image file is the one you want to install,
refer to the Release Notes.
2. If you normally boot the device from the primary or secondary flash, continue with this step.
Otherwise, skip to
.
Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI to copy the Layer 3
software from the TFTP server onto the device.
copy tftp flash <ip-addr> <file-name> primary | secondary
<ip-addr> specifies the IP address of the TFTP server, <file-name> is the system software
image file name, and primary or secondary specifies the flash area. For example, to copy
software release SXR05000.bin into the primary flash, enter the following command.
FastIron# copy tftp flash 209.1.4.69 SXR05000.bin primary
The CLI will display a message showing that it is erasing the current contents of the flash area
