Required Software Images The ServerIron ADX Series of Applications Switches are upgraded using a single software image. This image is downloaded to the ServerIron ADX switch as either a Primary or Secondary. The default booting image is the Primary while the ServerIron ADX switch can be configured to boot from the Secondary.

Image Files for TrafficWorks 12.0.00c

The following Switch Software Image Files are available for TrafficWorks 12.0.00c.

Device Switch Image File Router Image File Boot Image File

ServerIron ADX Series: All models

ASM12000c.bin ASR12000c.bin A1B12000.bin

Note: Brocade recommends using the latest software versions to get the greatest benefit from the ServerIron Application Delivery Controller.

Factory Pre-loaded Software ServerIron ADX Application switches are pre-loaded with a switch image on both primary and secondary flash.

• If you place an order for ServerIron ADX (PREM) then the unit will still ship with switch code on primary and secondary flash. However, the unit will be activated for PREM code, so you will be able to download the PREM code from the Brocade Knowledge Portal and run it on the system.

ServerIron ADX Series v12.0.00c Release Notes v 1.3 Page 10 of 21

Downloading a ServerIron ADX Image By default, a ServerIron ADX switch boots from primary. Optionally, it can be configured to boot from secondary. The following sections describe the following:

• How to download a Software Image as Primary Image. This is the default operation.

• How to download a Software Image as Secondary Image.

Downloading a Software Image as Primary To download a software image to a ServerIron ADX switch and reload, follow these steps:

1. Copy the correct ServerIron software image to a TFTP server.

2. Use the copy tftp flash command on the ServerIron ADX switch to download the software image from the TFTP server, as shown in the following:

ServerIron# copy tftp flash <ip_addr> asm12000c.bin primary

In this example the image is downloaded to flash as “primary”.

3. Reload the ServerIron ADX as shown in the following.

ServerIron# reload

When the ServerIron ADX reloads, it will boot using the primary image.

Downloading a Software Image as Secondary By default, the ServerIron ADX, uses the “primary” image as its working image. You can configure a ServerIron ADX switch to use the “secondary” image as its working image as shown in the following:

1. Copy the correct ServerIron software image to a TFTP server.

2. Use the copy tftp flash command on the ServerIron ADX switch to download the software image from the TFTP server, as shown in the following:

ServerIron# copy tftp flash <ip_addr> asm12000c.bin secondary ServerIron#

In this example the image is downloaded to flash as “secondary”.

3. Configure the ServerIron ADX switch to use “secondary” as its working image.

ServerIron(config)# boot system flash secondary

4. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration and reload the switch, as shown in the following.

ServerIron# write memory ServerIron# reload

When the ServerIron ADX reloads, it will boot using the secondary image.

ServerIron ADX Series v12.0.00c Release Notes v 1.3 Page 11 of 21

Loading an Application Image from a TFTP Server In some situations, you may need to load the application image from a TFTP server. The following steps describe the required procedure.

1. Directly connect the TFTP server to the management port of the ServerIron ADX.

2. Reload the ServerIron ADX and enter ‘b’ while the switch is booting.

This will put the ServerIron ADX into the monitor mode

3. In monitor mode, assign an IP address and configure a default-gateway to reach the TFTP server through the management port.

In the following example, the ServerIron is configured in monitor mode the IP Address for the ServerIron : ‘10.45.5.23’ and the Default Gateway : 10.23.5.254.

Monitor> remote address 10.45.5.23 255.255.255.0 Monitor> remote default-gateway 10.45.5.254

4. Ping the TFTP server from the ServerIron ADX.

Monitor> ping 10.45.5.11

5. Load the required application image located on the TFTP server to the ServerIron ADX as shown:

Monitor> boot system tftp 10.45.5.11 ASR12000c.bin

After loading the applications image using this procedure, copy the images to either primary or secondary (as described previously) so that the ServerIron can be booted from flash instead of TFTP.

NOTE : The management port on the ServerIron ADX can only be used for this procedure. In release 12.0, it is not available for any other use.

Saving and Uploading a System Snapshot for Tech Support Beginning with release 12.0.00b, you can save a system snapshot and upload it as a text or HTML file for use by Brocade Technical support using the following procedure :

1. Save the system snapshot as either a text or HTML file to flash using the save tech-support command.

2. Copy the saved file that contains the system snapshot from flash to the internal USB drive (usb0) using the copy flash usb0 command.

3. Copy the saved file that contains the system snapshot from internal USB drive to TFTP server using the copy usb0 tftp command.

Command Syntax

The syntax for the commands described in steps 1 through 3 above is described in the following.

ServerIron ADX Series v12.0.00c Release Notes v 1.3 Page 12 of 21

Syntax : save tech-support text | html <saved-file-name>

Using the text parameter specifies that the system snapshot will be saved as a text file.

Using the html parameter specifies that the system snapshot will be saved as a html file.

The <saved-file-name> variable specifies the name of the file you are saving to flash.

Syntax: copy flash usb0 <from-filename> <to-filename>

The <from-filename> variable specifies the name of the file that you want to copy from flash to the USB0 drive.

The <to-filename> variable specifies the name of the file that you are copying to on the USB0 drive.

Syntax : copy usb0 tftp <tftp-server-ip-addr> <from-file-name> <to-file-name>

The <tftp-server-ip-addr> variable specifies the IP address of the TFTP server you want to upload the file to.

The <from-filename> variable specifies the name of the file that you want to copy from USB0 drive to the TFTP server.

The <to-filename> variable specifies the name of the file that you are copying to on the TFTP server.

Example

The following example describes the procedure for saving a system snapshot as a text file named ‘sysfile1.txt’ to flash,, copying it to the internal USB drive (usb0) and uploading it to a TFTP server.

ServerIron# save tech-support text sysfile1.txt ServerIron# copy flash usb0 sysfile1.txt sysfile1.txt ServerIron# copy usb0 tftp 10.10.10.10 sysfile1.txt sysfile1.txt
