Image Filename Prefixes

The software image file can be an .xos file, which contains an ExtremeXOS core image, or an .xmod file, which contains an ExtremeXOS modular software package.

Filename Prefixes

You can identify the appropriate image or module for your platform based on the filename of the image. The following table lists the filename prefixes for each platform.

Platform Filename Prefixes BlackDiamond X8 series bdX- BlackDiamond 8810 bd8800- BlackDiamond 8806 bd8800- Summit family EG4-200, EG4-400 summitX- Summit X430 summitlite- Summit X480 summitX480-15.6.xx.yy.xos (X480 and stacks that include X480)

For example, if you have a BlackDiamond X8 switch, download image filenames with the prefix bdX-. For additional installation requirements see the sections, Installing a Core Image and Installing a Modular Software Package.
