How can I know if it took? Is there somewhere I can tell what version is installed?

Always good to keep a backup of your configuration during any upgrade/downgrade or change. But the switch should keep it's configuration during an upgrade (and most times during a downgrade as well).

I would pick that version as well. Please be informed that this switch is end of life and end of support. So if things don't work, you are on your own. Maybe fine for lab/testing usage, but not recommended for production use.

This seems to be the newest 5500.HI_5.20.R5501P36 should just install this one? Is there firmware somewhere also?
Thanks sorry I'm so uninformed.

I was finally able to get the switch to the right IP, Yeah! Can access it. I'm curious where would I find the latest software and firmware for it?
Here is picture of what's installed.

Curious where I would change this? I believed a reset would reset this to 1?

Depends. If you are able to login to the switch, just enter "reset saved-configuration" and > prompt (user view) and reboot the switch. Say NO at the prompt "Save current configuration"-
If you can't login, then connect to the console port and go to boot loader menu and select Skip current configuration option.
You have many hits on this question if you just google it.
Also you can check documentation of the switch.
Best, Gorazd
