Directory and image names are case sensitive. Note To avoid an unsuccessful download, use the archive download-sw /safe command, which downloads the image first and does not delete the current running version until the download succeeds. The download algorithm verifies that the image is appropriate for the bridge model and that enough DRAM is present, or it aborts the process and reports an error. If you specify the /overwrite option, the download algorithm removes the existing image on the Flash device, whether or not it is the same as the new one, downloads the new image, and then reloads the software. Note If the Flash device has sufficient space to hold two images and you want to overwrite one of these images with the same version, you must specify the /overwrite option.

Chapter 17
Managing Firmware and Configurations
Working with Software Images
Note
To avoid an unsuccessful download, use the
archive download-sw /safe
command, which downloads
the image first and does not delete the current running version until the download succeeds.
The download algorithm verifies that the image is appropriate for the bridge model and that enough
DRAM is present, or it aborts the process and reports an error. If you specify the
/overwrite
option, the
download algorithm removes the existing image on the Flash device, whether or not it is the same as the
new one, downloads the new image, and then reloads the software.
Note
If the Flash device has sufficient space to hold two images and you want to overwrite one of these images
with the same version, you must specify the
/overwrite
option.
Step 7
archive download-sw /overwrite /reload
ftp:
[[
//
username
[
:
password
]
@
location
]
/
directory
]
/
image-name
.tar
Download the image file from the FTP server to the bridge, and
overwrite the current image.
The
/overwrite
option overwrites the software image in
Flash with the downloaded image.
The
/reload
option reloads the system after downloading
the image unless the configuration has been changed and
not saved.
For
//
username
[
:
password
], specify the username and
password; these must be associated with an account on the
FTP server. For more information, see the
“Preparing to
Download or Upload an Image File by Using FTP” section
on page 17-23
.
For
@
location
, specify the IP address of the FTP server.
For
directory
/
image-name
.tar
, specify the directory
(optional) and the image to download. Directory and
image names are case sensitive.
Step 8
archive download-sw /leave-old-sw /reload
ftp:
[[
//
username
[
:
password
]
@
location
]
/
directory
]
/
image-name
.tar
Download the image file from the FTP server to the bridge, and
keep the current image.
The
/leave-old-sw
option keeps the old software version
after a download.
The
/reload
option reloads the system after downloading
the image unless the configuration has been changed and
not saved.
For
//
username
[
:
password
], specify the username and
password. These must be associated with an account on
the FTP server. For more information, see the
“Preparing
to Download or Upload an Image File by Using FTP”
section on page 17-23
.
For
@
location
, specify the IP address of the FTP server.
For
directory
/
image-name
.tar
, specify the directory
(optional) and the image to download. Directory and
image names are case sensitive.
