Does the archive download-sw perform a verify with md5 of the .bin file? Or should I do a verify /md5 on the bin file afterwords?

Hi George,
I never read anywhere whether it verify md5 automatically or not.
But i can guess, download-sw CANNOT verify md5 by itself. You must have to do verify md5 manually using verify /md5 command.

Hi,
Below is a sample output of the use of the archive download-sw command.
++ During the installation process, it simply extracts the image to each devices
flash, sets the bootvariable automatically.
++ And verify /md5 action will not be performed during this activity.
++ If you want to verify the image before installing, then you need to copy the
image to the master switch, verify the image using verify /md5
and manually extract the image in each switch.
3750-stack#archive tar /xtract c3750-advipservicesk9-tar.122-25.SEE1.tar
flash1:
To set the bootvariable from master to all the switches,
3750-stack(config)#boot system switch all flash:/c3750-
advipservicesk9-mz.122-25.SEE1/c3750-advipservicesk9-mz.122-25.SEE1.bin
3750-stack(config)#exit
3750-stack#write memory
