Before You Begin
Before you can upgrade your CSS, you must copy the new CSS software to your
FTP server and configure an FTP server record so the CSS recognizes the server.
Use the show installed-software version-limit command to display the
maximum number of installed versions allowed on your hard disk or Flash disk.
Copying the New CSS Software
ArrowPoint Distribution Images (ADIs) of the CSS software versions are located
on the Cisco Systems website (www.cisco.com). Use your customer login and
password to access this page. From this location, access the page listing the
versions of GZIP-compressed software, then click an image to download it. Once
the image is downloaded, place it on an FTP server that the CSS can access.
Note You do not need to uncompress the GZIP-compressed software. When you copy
the software, or if the upgrade script copies the software to the CSS, the CSS
automatically uncompresses it.
Configuring an FTP Server Record on the CSS
Before you can copy the ADI from the FTP server to the CSS, you must create an
FTP record file on the CSS identifying the ADI. The record contains the IP
address, username, and password for the server. If you did not configure an FTP
record before starting the upgrade script, the script prompts you to configure one.
To configure an FTP server record:
1. Log in to the CSS.
2. Access global configuration mode:
# config
(config)#
