DESCRIPTION:  This SoftPaq contains the ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch boot image and Readme files.

HOW TO USE:
                                              
Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your target computer. The SoftPaq
is a .tgz file with a file name based on the SoftPaq Number. 

Run this command to extract the files from the .tgz file: 
	tar -zxvf *.tgz 

Place the firmware image file (*.bin) on a TFTP server that is network-accessible from the switch you wish to update.  Use the switch's command line interface (CLI) to update the firmware. Alternately, the switch's serial console may be used to update the firmware.  See the switch's User Guide for detailed instructions.

Refer to the Softpaq README file for installation instructions and firmware information.
