Function name:
Firmware – Firmware Selection
Function description:
Due to the switch supports Dual image for firmware redundancy purpose. You can select
what firmware image for your device start firmware or operating firmware. This page
provides information about the active and alternate (backup) firmware images in the device,
and allows you to revert to the alternate image.
Parameters description:
Image The flash index name of the firmware image. The name of
primary (preferred) image is image, the alternate image is
named image.bk.
Version The version of the firmware image.
Date The date where the firmware was produced.
Activate Alternate Image Click to use the alternate image. This button may be
disabled depending on system state.
Note:
In case the active firmware image is the alternate image, only the "Active Image" table
is shown. In this case, the Activate Alternate Image button is also disabled.
If the alternate image is active (due to a corruption of the primary image or by manual
intervention), uploading a new firmware image to the device will automatically use the
primary image slot and activate this.
The firmware version and date information may be empty for older firmware releases.
This does not constitute an error.
