Usage Guidelines
If you use the archive download-sw privileged EXEC command to download an image to a TFTP server,
the output of the archive download-sw command shows the status of the download.
If you do not have a TFTP server, you can use Network Assistant or the embedded device manager to
download the image by using HTTP. The show archive status command shows the progress of the
download.
Expressions are case sensitive. For example, if you enter | exclude output, the lines that contain output
are not displayed, but the lines that contain Output are displayed.
