Using the CLI to Install Firmware
To install firmware using the CLI when a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server is
present on the management workstation, use the Firmware Install command. This
command downloads the firmware from a remote host, installs the firmware, and
performs a disruptive firmware activation. Refer to the “Firmware Install
Command” on page B-18 for more information.
1. Enter the following command to download the firmware from a remote host
to the switch, install the firmware, then reset the switch to activate the
firmware.
SANbox (admin) #> firmware install
Warning: Installing new firmware requires a switch reset.
Continuing with this action will terminate all management
sessions, including any Telnet sessions. When the firmware
activation is complete, you may log in to the switch again.
