• When you initiate the get upgrade command, messages similar to the following appear:
Upgrade download initiated.
Status of upgrade started Nov 26 16:35:08...
Downloading new image file... 2.7MB/50.4MB received.
Note: Use the ’show upgrade’ command to see the current status.
• When you initiate the get upgrade command using the mindowngrade argument, the version at the
URL you specify is compared to the currently running image version. If a factory reset would be
required in order to switch between these two versions, then a warning message appears. For
example, suppose you want to upgrade a system that is currently running version 3.1.122, and the
upgrade available at the URL you provide is 4.0.12. The get upgrade command will return a
warning similar to the following:
Minimum downgrade for the version at that URL: 4.0.0
Installed version: 3.1.122
A factory reset would be required to return to the current version after
installing the version at that URL.
• If the current version and the version at the URL are compatible (no factory reset required) then the
minimum version to which you could downgrade without a factory reset is reported:
Minimum downgrade version: 4.0.0
• When you initiate the get upgrade command with the version argument, a variety of messages may
appear, depending on the relationship between the current (running) version and the version at the
URL you specify:
The version at that URL is a downgrade(Version: 3.1.122)
Caution: If you upgrade or downgrade a unit to a version that is substantially different from the
software version running on other units in your 700wl Series system, those units may not be able
to communicate. See the release notes for the affected software versions for possible information
on compatibility across the 700wl Series system between software versions. In particular, units
running software version 4.0 or later cannot communicate with units running software version 3.1
or earlier.
