Program files required to run IronWare OS IP products can include boot, monitor, software, and
unified management programs, depending on the product. These program files are imported into
the Management application manually from the Firmware Management repository.

NOTE

Importing images requires users to have the Firmware Management privilege.

Multiple versions of files may be stored for a product. A stored image can be deployed to
appropriate products managed by the Management application.

You can obtain copies of software files by downloading them from the Knowledge Portal
(kp.foundrynet.com). Updates are available to customers that have current technical support
maintenance contracts. For more information, contact your service representative.

Copy the software files to a directory that is accessible from the Management application server.
