== Switching between Xorp+ (Regular switching) and Open flow ==

In order to switch between the two firmware modes, the switch must be rebooted. Once rebooted you have to intercept the boot loader
countdown (otherwise it will boot it's default). Once the countdown in interrupted you will be in the Uboot PreOs. From here you can modify the boot varibles to swtich between the diffrent firmwares. A few usefull Uboot commands:
 * printenv - List current environment varibles
 * setenv - sets the env variable. Syntax is: setenv VARNAME 'VARVALUE'
 * saveenv - saves modifications
 * boot - Once env varibles are set to desired varibles, continues the boot process

''' Complete list at the bottom '''

The output of printenv currently looks like this:

The major varibles we'll be concerned with are:
 * flash_bootcmd - Open flow boot commands
 * cfcard_bootcmd - Xorp+ boot commands
 * bootcmd - Uboot consults this varible to determine what to boot

The bootcmd variable is the one that dictates what actually gets booted. It is currently configured (this should be the default) to run the cfcard_bootcmd varible. This variable will be substituted with it contents, which are the commands required to boot from the cfcard into the xorp environment. We will change this from 'run cfcard_bootcmd' to 'run flash_bootcmd'. 

{{{
setenv bootcmd 'run flash_bootcmd'
}}}

From here we can simply boot if we don't want to change the default boot config. Or we could do a saveenv if we require that default booting behavior be changed.
