Set Boot System - Enterasys Matrix 2G4072-52 Configuration Manual

2.2.7.2

set boot system

Use this command to set the firmware image the switch loads at startup. This is the image that will
be loaded automatically after the system has been reset. Although it is not necessary to choose to
reset the system and activate the new boot image immediately, the CLI will prompt you whether or
not you want to do so. You can choose "Yes" at the question prompt to have the system reset and
load the new boot image immediately, or choose "No" to load the new boot image at a later
scheduled time by issuing one of the following commands: clear config, reset, or configure. The
new boot setting will be remembered through resets and power downs, and will not take effect until
the clear config, reset, or configure command is given.
