BootROM version updation

[Alok_Shukla]

We have X440 switch and their firmware version:15.0 so during upgradation of firmware to direct 21.0 what would be effect?
a) does license will still remain or we have to install again?
b) does BOOTROM upgradation required for upgradation of firmware?

Hi, Alok. The X440 switches support only EXOS 15 and 16 versions. They won't recognize EXOS 21.

For details about software support for all Extreme switch models, check out the HW/SW Support Matrix (search on X440).

Hi Alok,
Licenses will persist through the update.
BootROM will not need to be updated.

While upgrading to 16 version.
a) does license will still remain or we have to install again?
b) does BOOTROM upgradation required for upgradation of firmware?
