Release Notes

S9500 series routing switches software is originally upgraded through serial port.
However, this mode is slow and time-consuming, it needs to be on site, and only one
device at a time. To facilitate software upgrading, S9500 series routing switches
introduce FTP module to implement fast and flexible software upgrade and file
download. The version offers a simpler upgrade way. Users can upgrade a switch by
using command line and rebooting the switch. Please confirm the current version
number before upgrading.
