Software reboot
You can use boot commands to immediately initiate software boots from a software image stored in primary or secondary flash on a Ruckus device or from a BootP or TFTP server. You can test new versions of code on a Ruckus device or choose the preferred boot source from the console boot prompt without requiring a system reset.
NOTE
It is very important that you verify a successful TFTP transfer of the boot code before you reset the system. If the boot code is not transferred successfully but you try to reset the system, the system will not have the boot code with which to successfully boot.
By default, the Ruckus device first attempts to boot from the image stored in its primary flash, then its secondary flash, and then from a TFTP server. You can modify this booting sequence from the global configuration mode of the CLI using the boot system command.
To initiate an immediate boot from the CLI, enter one of the boot system commands.
NOTE
When using the
boot system tftp command, the IP address of the device and the TFTP server should be in the same subnet.
