Follow the steps below to FTP the FPGA/CPLD upgrade kit to the switch and perform the FPGA/CPLD
upgrade. Note the following:
• The CMMs must be certified and synchronized and running from Working directory.
• This procedure will automatically reboot the switch or stack.
• Make sure the destination paths are correct when transferring the files. Also, when the transfer
is complete, verify the file sizes are the same as the original indicating a successful binary
