Managing switches
After an NDCLA operation is complete, management connections must be re-initiated:
•
QuickTools sessions will re-connect automatically
•
Telnet sessions must be restarted manually.
Future switch firmware releases will support non-disruptive upgrades unless specifically indicated in its
associated release notes.
An NDCLA operation to earlier switch firmware releases is not supported.
The Load Firmware dialog box (
