2.Click “OK“ to complete firmware selection.

Parameter Description

Cancel: Cancel activating the backup image. Navigates away from this page.

Image: The flash index name of the firmware image. The name of primary (preferred) image is image, the alternate image is named image.bk.

Version: The version of the firmware image.

Date: The date when the firmware was produced.

NOTE: In case the active firmware image is the alternate image, only the “Active Image“ table is shown. In this case, the Activate Alternate Image button is also disabled.

NOTE: If the alternate image is active (because of a corruption of the primary image or by manual intervention), uploading a new firmware image to the device will automatically use the primary image slot and activate this.
