Chapter 8 Configuring the Cisco IOS XE In Service Software Upgrade Process
How to Perform the ISSU Process
•
Compare two IOS XE software images and understand the compatibility level of the software
images (that is, compatible, base-level compatible, and incompatible), or dynamically determined.
•
Compare two software images and see the client compatibility for each ISSU client.
•
Provide links to release notes for the software image.
How to Perform the ISSU Process
Unlike SSO, which is a mode of operation for the device and a prerequisite for performing ISSU, the
ISSU process is a series of steps performed while the switch is in operation. The steps result in an
upgrade to new or modified Cisco IOS XE software, and have a minimal impact to traffic.
Note
For an illustration of the process flow for ISSU, refer to

Upgrading ISSU to Cisco IOS XE 3.4.0SG/15.1(2)SG from a Prior Release
Because images prior to Cisco IOS XE 3.4.0SG/15.1(2)SG use the earlier CLI format and Cisco IOS XE
3.4.0SG and 15.1(2)SG images use a newer CLI format, your upgrade consists of the following:
•
Upgrading the image on your switch to Cisco IOS XE 3.4.0SG/15.1(2)SG.
•
Upgrading mgmtVrf from the earlier CLI format to the later format, removing any IPv6 addresses
on the interface.
•
Enabling IPv6 address family under mgmtVrf, and reconfigure IPv6 addresses on fa1.
A configuration like the following should exist on pre-Cisco IOS XE 3.4.0SG/15.1(2)SG image:
ip vrf mgmtVrf
!
interface FastEthernet1
ip vrf forwarding mgmtVrf
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
speed auto
duplex auto
ipv6 address 2000::1/64
