Upgrading the Management Software
If you log into a switch with Device Manager and that switch has a later version of the Device Manager
software, you are prompted to install the later version. You can also upgrade Device Manager at any time
by entering the IP address or host name of the supervisor module with the later version of software in
the Address field of your browser.
Note Downgrades are not supported through the installer. To downgrade Device Manager to an earlier release,
you need to manually uninstall first, and then reinstall the previous version of Device Manager.
To upgrade the Cisco Fabric Manager software, follow the instructions described in the “Installing the
Management Software” section on page 2-5. The installer supports software upgrade of the Fabric
Manager application.
