Gerade in der Release note entdeckt was die kryptischen Dateinamen der Autonomous AP Images zu bedeuten haben.
Des Weiteren kann man anhand des Dateinamen auch rauslesen, ob es sich um ein Autonomous, Lightweight oder Recovery Image handelt. Darüber Auskunft gibt die Zahl hinter dem „w“, zB.:
ap1g1-k9w7-tar.153-3.JC.tar
k9w7 – autonomous IOS
k9w8 – full lightweight IOS
rcvk9w8 – lightweight recovery image
Step 1) Bootvorgang abbrechen durch drücken des Mode Buttons.
