Brocade FastIron Ethernet Switch Software Upgrade Guide - Manual (Page 39)

Load the boot code using SCP
1. Place the new boot code on a SCP-enabled host to which the Brocade device has access.
2. If the device has only 8 MB of flash memory or if you want to install a full Layer 3 image, delete
both the primary and secondary image using the erase flash command.
3. Enter the following command to copy the boot code from the SCP-enabled host into flash memory:
pscp image-file-name hostname@management-ip:flash:bootrom
For example:
C:\> pscp grz07302.bin [email protected]:flash:bootrom
4. Verify that the code has been successfully copied onto the device by using the show flash
command at any level of the CLI. The output will display the compressed boot ROM code size and
the boot code version.
Load the flash code
You can load the flash code using either TFTP or SCP as described in the following sections.
NOTE
It is strongly recommended that you use SCP for reliable and secure loading of flash code.
Load the flash code using TFTP
1. Place the new flash code on a TFTP server to which the Brocade device has access.
2. If the device has only 8 MB of flash memory or if you want to install a Full Layer 3 image, make
sure that the TFTP server and the image file are reachable and then delete the primary and
secondary images before proceeding further.
NOTE
If the primary flash contains additional files that are not related to the software update, it is
recommended that these files are also deleted.
3. Enter the following command at the privileged EXEC level of the CLI to copy the flash code from
the TFTP server into flash memory.
copy tftp flash ip-addr image-file-name primary | secondary
For example,
Brocade # copy tftp flash 192.168.10.12 TIS07300f.bin primary
FSX, FCX, and ICX 6610 devices generate an output similar to the following:
Device# Flash Memory Write (8192 bytes per dot) ................................
..................................................................................
.........................................................
TFTP to Flash Done
ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices generate an output similar to the following:
Brocade # Load to buffer (8192 bytes per dot)
.......................................................................
.......................
SYNCING IMAGE TO FLASH. DO NOT SWITCH OVER OR POWER DOWN THE UNIT...
