Software image management
Software images are program files other than boot, monitor, or unified images. You can manage
software images using the following Management application modules:
• Discovery — Copies software images from IronWare and Network OS products on the network
into the Management application.
• Backup Scheduler — Copies software images from IronWare and Network OS products on a
regularly scheduled basis.
• Firmware Management — Manually imports software images into the Management
application. This module also allows you to delete software images from the Management
application.
• Configuration Wizard — Deploys software images that are available in the Management
application to IronWare and Network OS products.

To view the list of software images, select the Software Images tab on the Firmware Management
