device-upgrade

Profile Config Commands

Configures device firmware upgrade settings on this profile

Administrators can customize profiles with unique device configuration file and firmware upgrade support. In a clustered environment, operations performed on one device are propagated to each member of the cluster and then onwards to devices managed by each cluster member. The number of concurrent device upgrades and their start times can be customized to ensure a sufficient number of devices remain in duty while upgrades are administered to others.

Supported in the following platforms:

  • Access Points — AP505i, AP510i/e, AP560i/h
  • Service Platforms — NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000

Syntax

device-upgrade [add-auto|auto|count|persist-images]
device-upgrade add-auto [(ap505|ap510|rfs4000|nx5500|nx75xx|nx9000|nx9600|vx9000)]
device-upgrade auto {(ap505|ap510|rfs4000|nx5500|nx75xx|nx9000|nx9600|vx9000)}
device-upgrade count <1-128>
device-upgrade persist-images

Parameters

device-upgrade add-auto[(ap505|ap510|rfs4000||nx5500|nx75xx| nx9000|nx9600)]
device-upgrade add-auto Configures a list of devices types for automatic firmware upgrade

This command specifies the types of devices that can be automatically upgraded (if enabled). To enable automatic device firmware upgrade, use the ‘auto‘ command. When enabled, access points, wireless controllers, and service platforms, using this profile, will automatically upgrade firmware on adopted devices that match the specified device types.

[<DEVICE-TYPE>] Specifies the type of devices to be upgraded. Select the device type. The options are: The options are: AP505, AP510, RFS4000, NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000.
Note: Multiple device types can be added to the add-auto list.
device-upgrade auto {(ap505|ap510|rfs4000|nx5500|nx75xx|nx9000|nx9600|vx9000)}
device-upgrade auto Enables automatic firmware upgrade on specified device types. When used along with the add-auto command, the auto command allows access points, wireless controllers, and service platforms to automatically upgrade firmware on adopted devices matching the specified device types.
<DEVICE-TYPE> Optional. Specifies the type of device to be lined up for automatic firmware upgrade. The options are: The options are: AP505, AP510, RFS4000, NX5500, NX7500, NX9500, NX9600, VX9000.
Note: Multiple device types can be added to the auto list.
device-upgrade count <1-128>
device-upgrade count <1-128> Configures the maximum number of concurrent upgrades possible
  • <1-128> – specify a value from 1 - 128. The default is 10.
device-upgrade persist-images
device-upgrade Configures parameters for automatic firmware upgrade of adopted devices. Use this command to select the device types and the maximum number of concurrent upgrades.
persist-images Enables RF Domain manager to retain AP firmware image after upgrade, subject to availability of space. This option is enabled by default.

This option is enabled for all controllers and service platforms RF Domain managers with the flash memory capacity to store firmware images for the selected access point models they provision. This feature is disabled for access point RF Domain managers that do not typically have the flash memory capacity needed.
