4. Enter the ID numbers of the switches to receive the management

software from the command switch. The ID numbers are the numbers
in the Num column in the SHOW ESTACK REMOTELIST command.
You can update more than one switch at a time. For example, to
update switches 1 and 2 in Figure 119 on page 586, you would enter:

Remote switches will reboot after load is complete.
Enter the list of switches -> 1,2

The command switch starts the download process with the first switch.
After downloading its management software to that switch, it repeats
the process with the next switch, and so on.

After a switch has received from the command switch the entire
management software file, it compares the version numbers of the new
image file and its current management software. If the new image file
has an earlier or the same version number as the current management
software, it cancels the update procedure. If the new image file has a
newer version number, the switch writes the file into flash memory and
then resets.
