CLI User Guide
IMPORTANT!
When a USB Mass Storage drive is used, do not remove the drive during the file transfer.
NOTE
All parameters are locked during a software upgrade until the device is rebooted and the upgraded
partition is changed to an active state. This prevents post-upgrade configuration changes that are not
carried over to the upgraded partition.
If required, the software upgrade can be stopped/declined at any time before the device is rebooted.
For more information about stopping/declining a software upgrade, refer to
Declining a Software
NOTE
All system configurations and user files (i.e. feature keys, configuration files, etc.) are carried over to
the upgrade partition.
NOTE
If a major system failure is detected upon rebooting with the newly upgraded partition, the device will
automatically roll back to the previously active partition.
