Explanation
On AOS-CX VSX pairs, a hitless upgrade is performed using the vsx update-software command. This process always starts with the secondary switch first, ensuring minimal disruption. Once the secondary is upgraded and resynchronized, the primary switch is upgraded. This preserves control plane stability and forwarding continuity during the upgrade.
