In the Software Upgrade screen, the system can be configured to download and boot from a new image from the network. Please refer to Chapter
5 when updating software. Choose the method for the next system boot process: 'Net' will boot from the network, 'Net and Save' will boot from the
network and permanently save the retrieved boot image in the switch, 'Last Saved' will boot from the boot image last saved in non-volatile memory
in the switch. For booting from the network, supply the TFTP server IP address and boot image file name, then select 'Apply'.

Net option
This option allows the user to try out a new image before upgrading. It requires a TFTP filename and a server IP address to retrieve the specified
image from the given IP address. The new image will not overwrite the one in non-volatile memory. (This is the default setting. See Figure 7-13)
Net & save option
This option requires the same setup as the Net option, i.e. TFTP server and a new image. However, it copies the image to non-volatile memory and
then the system boots from non-volatile memory.
Last Saved option
The system will boot from non-volatile memory. This option will automatically show up after the ‘Net & save’ option is selected and the unit is reset.
