If the SWI= statement in the boot-config file is invalid, what will happen when the switch reboots?
If the SWI= statement in the boot-config file is invalid, the switch will not boot EOS and will instead enter Aboot. When there is an issue with the boot configuration, such as specifying an invalid or corrupt software image, the switch cannot proceed with its normal booting process and falls back to the Aboot environment to allow for troubleshooting and fixing the issue.
Yes A is correct.
A is correct. From Arista Warrior 2. In fact, if any of the following should occur, Aboot will halt the system: boot-config is corrupt or not found Configured EOS image is corrupt or not found Ctrl-C is entered from the console while the Aboot process is running
A is correct
If an image file is not specified in boot-config, or if booting the image results in an error condition (for example, an incorrect path or unavailable HTTP server), Aboot halts the boot process and drops into the shell.
