3.4 Viewing Switch Firmware Information
The switch can store two software versions. Information about the two versions displays within the Firmware
screen. The Version column displays the version string. The Build Time is the date and time each version
was generated. Install represents the date and time the upgrade was performed. Next Boot indicates which
version should be used on the next reboot. The Next Boot version should match the Running Version, unless
the system has failed over to another version.
To view the firmware files available to the switch:
1. Select Switch > Firmware from the main menu tree.
2. Refer to the following information displayed within the Firmware screen:
Image Displays whether a firmware image is the primary image or a
secondary image. The primary image is typically the image loaded
when the switch boots.
Version Displays a unique alphanumeric version name for each firmware
version listed.
Current Boot A check mark within this column designates this version as the
version used by the switch the last time it was booted. An “X” in
this column means this version was not used the last time the
switch was booted.
Next Boot A check mark within this column designates this version as the
version to be used the next time the switch is booted. An “X” in
this column means this version will not be used the next time the
switch is booted. To change the boot designation, highlight an
image and click the Edit button.
