Software Signatures

Each ExtremeWare XOS image contains a unique signature. The BootROM checks for signature
compatibility and denies an incompatible software upgrade. In addition, the software checks both the
installed BootROM and software and also denies an incompatible upgrade.

Rebooting the Switch

To reboot the switch immediately, use the following command:
reboot {time <date> <time> | cancel} {slot <slot number> | msm <slotid>}
where is the date and
date
rebooted. The values use the following format:
mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss
If you do not specify a reboot time, the reboot occurs immediately following the command, and any
previously schedule reboots are cancelled. To cancel a previously scheduled reboot, use the
option.

Saving Configuration Changes

The configuration is the customized set of parameters that you have selected to run on the switch. As
you make configuration changes, the new settings are stored in run-time memory. Settings that are
stored in run-time memory are not retained by the switch when the switch is rebooted. To retain the
settings, and have them loaded when you reboot the switch, you must save the configuration to
nonvolatile storage.
The switch can store multiple user-defined configuration files, each with its own file name. By default,
the switch has two pre-named configurations: a primary and a secondary configuration. When you save
configuration changes, you can select to which configuration you want the changes saved or you can
save the changes to a new configuration file. If you do not specify a file name, the changes are saved to
the configuration file currently in use. Or if you have never saved any configurations, you are asked to
save your changes to the primary configuration.
