When specifying an FTP server, the following syntax must be used, where
filedir indicates the path to the directory containing the new image:
ftp://[username[:password@]]192.168.0.1[/filedir]/
If the user name is omitted, “anonymous” will be used for the connection. If
the password is omitted a null string (“”) will be used for the connection.
If no user name nor password is required for the connection, then the “@”
character cannot be used in the path name.
This shows how to specify a TFTP server where new code is stored.
Console(config)#upgrade opcode path tftp://192.168.0.1/sm24/
Console(config)#
This shows how to specify an FTP server where new code is stored.
Console(config)#upgrade opcode path ftp://site9:billy@192.168.0.1/sm24/
Console(config)#
2. Set the switch to automatically reboot and load the new code after the opcode
upgrade is completed.
Console(config)#upgrade opcode reload
Console(config)#
3. Set the switch to automatically upgrade the current operational code when a
new version is detected on the server. When the switch starts up and automatic
image upgrade is enabled by this command, the switch will follow these steps
when it boots up:
a. It will search for a new version of the image at the location specified by
upgrade opcode path command. The name for the new image stored on
the FTP/SFTP/TFTP server must be ECS4100-series.bix. If the switch detects
a code version newer than the one currently in use, it will download the
new image. If two code images are already stored in the switch, the image
not set to start up the system will be overwritten by the new version.
b. After the image has been downloaded, the switch will send a trap message
to log whether or not the upgrade operation was successful.
c. It sets the new version as the startup image.
d. It then restarts the system to start using the new image.
Console(config)#upgrade opcode auto
