2. Go on to the Dell Networking system and copy the software image to the flash drive, using the copy command.
3. Run the verify {md5 | sha256} [ flash://]img-file [hash-value] command. For example, verify sha256 flash://FTOS-
SE-9.5.0.0.bin
4. Compare the generated hash value to the expected hash value published on the iSupport page.
To validate the software image on the flash drive after the image has been transferred to the system, but before the image has
been installed, use the verify {md5 | sha256} [ flash://]img-file [hash-value] command in EXEC mode.
● md5: MD5 message-digest algorithm
● sha256: SHA256 Secure Hash Algorithm
● flash: (Optional) Specifies the flash drive. The default is to use the flash drive. You can just enter the image file name.
● hash-value: (Optional). Specify the relevant hash published on i-Support.
● img-file: Enter the name of the Dell Networking software image file to validate

Verifying System Images on C9010 Components
Each C9010 RPM contains three components: Control Processor (CP), Route Processor (RP), and line-card processor (LP).
Each RPM component has a separate system image stored in the A: and B: flash partitions. In addition, each installed C9010 line
card has a separate image stored in partitions A: and B:.
To display the system images currently stored for all C9010 components, enter the show boot system all command. In
the command output:
● Column A: lists the system images stored in flash partition A: for each RPM component. Column B: lists the system images
stored in partition B:.
● The components of RPM0 installed in chassis slot 10 are:
○ RPM0 control processor: rmp 0 (CP)
○ RPM0 route processor: rmp 0 (RP)
○ RPM0 line-card processor: linecard 10
● The components of RPM1 installed in chassis slot 11 are:
○ RPM1 control processor: rmp 1 (CP)
○ RPM1 route processor: rmp 1 (RP)
