Command Parameters
- activate WORD<1-99>
- Copies the software version to the
boot flash file. When you use the software activate command, the system checks for
hardware dependencies and prevents a downgrade if it detects a dependency. For
example, if a hardware component has a minimum software version dependency, you
cannot downgrade to an incompatible software version or install the hardware
component in a chassis that runs an incompatible software version.

<version>.

release in /intflash/release/<version>

firmware version on the switch to the version bundled with the VOSS image currently
installed on the switch.
