After receiving the file, the switch compares the version numbers of the
new and existing image files. If the new image file has the same or an
earlier version number as the file in the application block, it cancels the
update process. If the new image file has a newer version number, the
switch writes the file to the application block portion of flash memory
and then resets.
Caution
The switch will not forward any network traffic while writing the
image to flash and during the reset process. This can take several
minutes to complete.
This completes the procedure for downloading a new AT-S62 image
file onto a switch from an Xmodem management session.
