take advantage of improvements and additional features as they become available. The upgrade
procedure and the required equipment are described as follows. This procedure assumes that you
have downloaded or otherwise obtained the firmware upgrade and that you have it available as a
binary file on your computer. This procedure uses the TFTP protocol to implement the transfer
from computer to switch.
