Forced BIOS Update
When you install a new software image, the currently loaded BIOS is updated if it does not match the new BIOS. If you are instructed by Radware Technical Support to do so, you can force the BIOS installation even if the version remains unchanged, using the following syntax:

In ADC-VX mode, in the Global Administrator environment only:
>> Boot Options# /boot/image vx|adc -f |

In standalone mode:
>> Boot Options# /boot/image [1-10] -f |
On the next boot, the BIOS is updated based on the image you specified.
