Appendix B Upgrading software

This section describes how to upgrade system software while the router is operating normally or when the

router cannot correctly start up.

System software file types

System software images are in .bin format (for example, main.bin) and run at startup. You can set a

system software image as a main, backup, or secure image.

At startup, the router always attempts to boot first with the main system software image. If the attempt fails,

for example, because the image file is corrupted, the router tries to boot with the backup system software

image. If the attempt still fails, the router tries to boot with the secure system software image. If all attempts

fail, the router displays a failure message.
