The software download process automatically completes without user intervention. The process erases the contents of flash memory and replaces it with a new software image. Take care not to interrupt the download process until after it runs to completion (the process can take up to ten minutes, depending on network conditions).

Unless you choose the Download without reset option, the switch automatically resets after the download process is complete. The new software image then initiates a self-test.

During the download process, the Ethernet Routing Switch 2500 Series is not operational. You can monitor the progress of the download process by observing the LED indications.
