current
Boot Prom Image version.
Here is an example:
2. Copy the upgrade boot PROM image software onto a TFTP server that the RS 32000 can access.
(Use the
ping command to verify that the RS 32000 can reach the TFTP server.)
Note If the TFTP server is one or more hops away from the RS 32000, add a route to
the TFTP server’s network using the ip add route command.
3. Enter the following command to copy the bootPROM upgrade onto the RS 32000’s internal
memory:
