Shutting Down The Switch Using The 3.0 Halt Command; Upgrading The Switch Image - Motorola WS5100 Series Migration Giude

System halted.
As directed, wait 10 seconds and turn off the device by toggling the power switch.

2.3.2 Shutting Down the Switch using the 3.0 Halt Command

To shut down the WS5100 from the CLI, issue a halt command, as the halt command is now used to shut
down the WS5100 Series Switch with the release of the 3.0 version WS5100 baseline:
WS5100#halt
Wireless switch will be halted, do you want to continue? (y/n):y
The system is going down NOW !!
% Connection is closed by administrator!
WIOS_SECURITYMGR[395]: DNSALG: Shutting down.
WIOS_SECURITYMGR[395]: FTPALG: Shutting down.
The system is halted.
NOTE: The WS5100 will power off after issuing a halt command through a software
toggle of the power supply. Be sure to flip the power switch to the Off position. If the
power cord is removed and reinstalled, or power is lost and restored, the switch will
power back on.

2.4 Upgrading the Switch Image

The WS510 ships with a factory installed firmware image with the full feature functionality described in this
System Reference Guide. However, Motorola periodically releases switch firmware that includes
enhancements or resolutions to known issues. Verify your current switch firmware version with the latest
version available from the Motorola Web site before determining if your system requires an upgrade.
Additionally, legacy users running either the 1.4.x or 2.x version switch firmware may want to upgrade to the
new 3.0 baseline to take complete advantage of the new diverse feature set available to them. This chapter
describes the method to upgrade from either the 1.4.x or 2.x baseline to the new 3.0 baseline.
CAUTION: Motorola recommends caution when upgrading your WS5100 switch image to
!
the 3.0 baseline as portions of your configuration will be lost and unrecoverable. Ensure
that you have exported your switch configuration to a secure location before upgrading
your switch. The upgrade.log file will contain a list of the issues found in the conversion
of the configuration file to the new format.
CAUTION: If using a 1.4.x or 2.x admin user password shorter than 8 characters (such as
!
the default Motorola password), the password will be converted to the 3.0 baseline admin
password of "password" upon a successful update to the 3.0 baseline. Ensure your
existing 1.4.x or 2.x admin password is longer than 8 characters before updating, or leave
as is and use "superuser" to login into an updated 3.0 baseline.
CAUTION: After upgrading the switch baseline from 1.4.x or 2.x to the 3.0 baseline,
!
applet caching can produce unpredictable results and contents. After the upgrade, ensure
your browser is restarted. Otherwise, the credibility of the upgrade can come into
question.
