Custom Firmware Installation
A custom firmware installation downloads the firmware image file from a remote
host to the switch, unpacks the image file, and resets the switch in separate steps.
This allows you to choose the type of switch reset and whether the activation will
be disruptive (
Reset
Switch command) or nondisruptive (
Hotreset
command). The
following example illustrates a custom firmware installation with a nondisruptive
activation.

If your workstation has a TFTP server, you can enter the Image TFTP
command to download the firmware image file.
