Does SWIM update the configuration file on Cisco Catalyst 5500/5000 devices during the software upgrade?
A. SWIM updates the configuration file on Catalyst 5500/5000 devices only when the device has a Supervisor Engine III card. SWIM updates the boot system commands and the config register value if necessary. For Supervisor Engine I and II and other module upgrades, SWIM does not update the configuration file on the device. Instead, SWIM uses CISCO-STACK-MIB and TFTP to download the configuration file. Before SWIM changes the configuration file on the device, SWIM backs up the file to the Job Schedule directory. The example below illustrates the SWIM update of the configuration file. Assume that a Supervisor Engine III card runs 3.1(1) software. Also, assume that the software image file is on slot0 with the name cat5000-sup3.3-1-1.bin. The configuration file boot system commands before the upgrade are: • set boot system flash slot0:cat5000-sup3.3-1-1.bin SWIM has upgraded the software to 4.1(2). The new software image is on the same Flash card as cat5000-sup3-4-1-2.bin. SWIM then performs
