Caution: Before reverting to a previous image, always back up your configuration by saving it to a
file (show config outfile on page 3-41). You can then copy the file to a remote location (copy on
page 3-43).
Note: You will not be able to peform these steps remotely unless you have remote console support.
Caution: If you do not follow the steps above, you may lose remote connectivity to the switch.
