Distributing Image and Configuration Files 341
Distributing System
Images
You can distribute a system image to one or more WX switches in a
Mobility Domain. Optionally, you can distribute compatible configuration
information from the network plan to the WX switches at the same time.
To use a new system image, you must reboot the WX. For more
information, see “Rebooting WX Switches or MAP Access Points” on
page 348.
3Com recommends that you verify the network plan before distributing
system images.
