router with a new patch. This example assumes that the Software Release 2.6.1
is set as the preferred release, on an AR410 router. The patch name is this

To upgrade to a new patch file:

Load the new patch file onto the router.

Load the new file onto your router. SeeLoading and Uploading Files” on
page 59.

LOAD FILE=52261-01.paz

Check that the file is successfully loaded.

SHOW FILE

Test the patch.

Set the release to run as a temporary install, so that it loads the patch once
only the next time it reboots.

SET INSTALL=TEMPORARY RELEASE=52-261.rez

PATCH=52261-01.paz

If you want to use the current router configuration again, store the
dynamic configuration as a configuration script file, and set the router to
use this configuration when it restarts.

CREATE CONFIG=myconfig.scp

SET CONFIG=myconfig.scp

Reboot the router.
