Example: Upgrade to a new patch file

Use this procedure to upgrade the software release currently running on the
router with a new patch. This example assumes that the Software Release 2.6.1
is set as the preferred release, on an AR410 router. The patch name is this
example is
52261-01.paz
To upgrade to a new patch file:
1. Load the new patch file onto the router.
Load the new file onto your router. See "Loading and Uploading Files" on
page 59.
LOAD FILE=52261-01.paz
Check that the file is successfully loaded.
SHOW FILE
2. Test the patch.
Set the release to run as a temporary install, so that it loads the patch once
only the next time it reboots.
SET INSTALL=TEMPORARY RELEASE=52-261.rez
PATCH=52261-01.paz
If you want to use the current router configuration again, store the
dynamic configuration as a configuration script file, and set the router to
use this configuration when it restarts.
CREATE CONFIG=myconfig.scp
SET CONFIG=myconfig.scp
Reboot the router.
RESTART REBOOT
The router reboots, loading the new patch file and the specified
configuration. Check that the router operates correctly with the new patch
file.
3. Make the patch part of the default (permanent) release.
If the router operates correctly with the new patch, make the release
permanent.
SET INSTALL=PREF RELEASE=52-261.rez PATCH=52261-01.paz
Every time the router reboots from now on, it loads the new release and
patch from FLASH.
Do not set an untested patch as part of the preferred install.
