Update Software

Each module in the Universal Chassis System has two flash memory banks that store software:

• The Active Flash Memory holds the software currently in use
• The Inactive Flash Memory holds the new software from a download or the older version of

software

Software is downloaded to the inactive region to avoid disrupting service. Resetting the module and
swapping banks does not affect module operation and is transparent to user traffic.

Use the Software Upgrade report and menu screen to check the current version of the 2345 firmware
and to upgrade software for any module in the domain or a managed module partner, if necessary.

To access the Software Upgrade screen, follow these steps:

1. At the Domain Management Module menu, type 4, Software Upgrade, and press <Enter>. The

Software Upgrade screen appears.

2. Record the numbers for the Active and Inactive Firmware.
