The switch announces the availability of the software to all
switches belonging to the same series; in turn, the switches
that need the upgrade respond by sending back a “request”
message.

The screen immediately turns on the

Activity Monitor

screen and displays the information as switches on the
network request and then receive the software.

Note

You cannot undo this command once executed.

You may go to menus without interrupting the software
download.

If you have many switches requesting the download, not all of them
may receive it especially if the network is busy. Repeat the procedure
to ensure all switches receive the software upgrade.

Note

Switches with different download passwords will not receive the
software download.
