LED Indications During the Download Process
The software download process automatically completes without user
intervention. The process erases the contents of flash memory and replaces it with
a new software image. Be careful not to interrupt the download process until after
it runs to completion (the process can take up to 10 minutes, depending on
network conditions).
When the download process is complete, the switch automatically resets and the
new software image initiates a self-test. The BayStack 450 switch Self-Test screen
(see
Figure 3-54 on page 3-131) briefly displays the results and is followed by the
Nortel Networks logo screen. Press [Ctrl]-Y from the Nortel Networks logo
screen to access the BayStack 450 switch main menu.
