Core Software Images. The switch can store up to two core images: a primary and a secondary. When
downloading a new image, you select which partition (primary or secondary) to install the new image.
If you do not specify a partition, the software image is downloaded and installed into the current
(active) partition. If you want to install the software image to the alternate partition, you must specify
that partition before downloading the image.
Image Filenames. The software image file can be a .xos file, which contains an ExtremeWare XOS core
image, or a .xmod file, which contains an ExtremeWare XOS modular software package. Modular
software packages have additional functionality that supplement a core image.
You can identify the appropriate image or module for your platform based on the filename of the
image. Table 32 lists the filename prefixes for each platform:
