Appendix Upgrading software through the
BootWare menu
NOTE:
•
This chapter takes software upgrade of an LSQM1WCMB0 on an S7500E switch as an example. Unless
otherwise specified, the software upgrade procedures of all access controller modules are similar.
• You can log in to the LSWM1WCM10 and LSWM1WCM20, which provide no console port, only
through redirection from the switch. For the configuration method, see “
Logging in to the access
controller module .”
• The BootWare program is upgraded together with the Comware application version. When you
upgrade the Comware application program, the system automatically checks whether the current
BootWare version is compliant with the Comware application and upgrades the BootWare version if
needed.
• Before upgrading the software of your access controller module, check the current BootWare version
and Comware application version to make sure that the correct file is used for the upgrade. For the
association between the Comware application version and the BootWare version, see the hardware and
software compatibility matrix in Release Notes.
Preparations
The preparations of the software upgrade at the BootWare menu are the same with that at the CLI. For
more information, see “ Software upgrade at the CLI .”
