Upgrade from the CLI
The upgrade procedure on a standalone switch is different from that on an Intelligent Resilient Framework
(IRF) fabric. This section describes the following topics:
• Upgrading a standalone switch
• Upgrading an IRF fabric
NOTE:
Up to two 7500 series switches can form a distributed IRF fabric. One switch is the master, and the other
is the slave.

The output shows that the switch has two MPUs, an active MPU in slot 0 and a standby MPU in slot 1. You
must upgrade software for the two MPUs.
NOTE:
You only need to upgrade the active MPU if the device has no standby MPU.
# Check the free storage space on the active and standby MPUs.
