Upgrading the BIOS
Refer to the release notes to verify if the BIOS has changed for the image version being used.
Tip
Program the supervisor or switching module BIOS only if a new BIOS image is provided by Cisco
System. Only use the provided image to upgrade the BIOS. This command does not affect traffic and can
be issued at any time on any switch in the Cisco MDS 9200 Series or Cisco MDS 9500 Series.
If the BIOS is upgraded, reboot to make the new BIOS take effect. You can schedule the reboot at a
Note
convenient time so traffic is not impacted.
The console baud rate automatically reverts to the default rate (9600) after any BIOS upgrade.
