2.3 Notes on installation
(1) Notes on the startup OS
Th
e startup OS is dedicated software for installing the basic software. After you log in to the
Switch, BOOT-INST-OS> is displayed for the prompt, indicating that the startup OS is running.
The startup OS starts up only the BCU, CSU, or MSU on AX6700S, AX6600S, or AX6300S
series switches, respectively. The startup OS does not start up NIFs. As a result, you must use the
management port to transfer the update file. In a BCU, CSU, or MSU redundant configuration,
use the management port of the active system.
When the startup OS is running, the IP address of the management port is set to 192.168.0.1/24.
For the host connected to the Switch, specify an IP address other than 192.168.0.1 that belongs to
the network 192.168.0.0/24. Note that after installation is complete, when the Switch is restarted,
the IP address 192.168.0.1/24 is automatically deleted.
The configuration cannot be changed.
The commands listed in Table 2-2 cannot be used.
