Deciding which files to download

There are several file types available from the F5 download site http://downloads.f5.com for the EUD.

File Name Description
ISO image The ISO image is provided for burning a CD or DVD of the EUD. You can boot the CD/DVD from a powered USB CD/DVD drive plugged in to your F5® system.
IM file The IM file is a self-extracting installation file. You can scp this file directly to your F5 system and use it to upgrade the EUD on the system or load a USB flash drive.
MD5 file There is a corresponding MD5 file for each ISO image and IM file that you download. Use the MD5 file to verify the integrity of the file you download.
Readme-EUD.txt This file includes details about the release, such as supported platforms.

Determining the EUD version installed on the system

You can use the eud_info command to determine which EUD version is installed on your system:
  1. Log in to the command line of the system using an account with root access.
  2. Verify the EUD version installed on your system.
    eud_info
The version number of the EUD installed on the system displays.
