Abstract
This memo documents a process which can be used to avoid network outages during the upgrading of a router's software. In this way, disruptions to the network community are avoided. The upgrade process definition comprises requirements for inserting a replacement router or upgrading the software in a working router within an operational network. To do this, it maximizes the use of accepted internet standards with minimal alteration.
