Upgrading the NAM Application Software with Catalyst Operating System Software
To upgrade the NAM application software, follow these steps:
Step 1 Copy the NAM application software image to a directory accessible to FTP.
Step 2 Log into the switch through the console port or through a Telnet session.
Step 3 If the NAM is already running in the maintenance image, go to Step 4. If the NAM is not running in the
maintenance image, enter this command in privileged mode:
Console> (enable) reset mod cf:1
Step 4 After the NAM is back online, establish a console session with the NAM and log into the root account.
Step 5 Upgrade the NAM application software by entering as follows:
root@localhost# upgrade ftp-url
where ftp-url is the FTP location and name of the NAM software image file
or
root@localhost# upgrade ftp-url --install
Note The --install keyword clears and recreates all of the NAM partitions. This action is similar to
restoring the factory-default state.
Note If the FTP server does not allow anonymous users, use the following syntax for the ftp-url value:
ftp://user@host/absolute-path/filename. Enter your password when prompted.
Step 6 Follow the screen prompts during the upgrade.
Step 7 After completing the upgrade, log out of the maintenance image.
Step 8 Reset to the NAM application image as follows:
Console> (enable) reset mod
Step 9 (Optional) Verify the initial configuration after the NAM comes back online by logging into the NAM
root account as follows:
root@localhost# show ip
root@localhost# show snmp
This example shows how to upgrade the NAM application software:
Console> (enable) reset 3 cf:1
This command will reset module 3.
Unsaved configuration on module 3 will be lost
