Firmware Update

You can either update the firmware for all three devices at once, or you can update it for a single

device that you specify.

Step 1. Connect to the 10GbE PTM. Run:

$ Connect switch-<n>

Where n is the number of the switch, 2 in our example.

Step 2. To start the upgrade process, run the command:

# copy image from-file

The system is now waiting for the file to be transferred from the SSH client.

Step 3. In your SSH client, initiate file transfer by pulling down the Transfers menu and clicking

Send Files. Provide the path to the PhyX firmware binary file and send it.

Firmware programming will be complete after loading the firmware binary file. This pro-

cess takes a few minutes.

At the end, the following message will be displayed at the prompt:

"FW updated successfully!"

Step 4. Exit the 10GbE PTM command line to the CMC command line. Run:
