3.2.3 Upgrading the AU
To upgrade the AU software, first configure the TFTP server that you want to use
for software version download, and then download the image to the NPU flash.
You can store up to three images to be used for AU upgrade. You are required to
create a mapping between the AU slot and the image residing in the NPU flash.
Each time the AU is reset or if you are inserting/re-inserting the AU card in the
AU slot for, the AU boots up using the AU-to-image mapping that you specify.
You can specify separate AU-to-image mappings for each AU slot. In addition, you
are required to create a mapping that is to be used as the default mapping. This
default mapping is used for boot up all AU slots for which a mapping does not
exist. After you have created the mapping, download the mapped image from the
NPU flash to the AU flash (for the AU slot for which the mapping is created). You
can then reboot the AU using the downloaded image. After mapping you can also
just reboot the AU(s) that after reboot will perform SW upgrade automatically.
If the image that you have used to reboot the AU is not the image currently
mapped to this AU slot, the AU-to-image mapping for that AU slot is updated with
this image (provided you have not deleted this image from the NPU flash before
rebooting the AU).
IMPORTANT
An error may occur if you execute this command when no download procedure is in progress.
