Hello guys,

In my lab I can’t make working the upgrading remote site APS through RFDM AP.

My upgrades are successful, but through VX9000 and not through the RFDM AP.

The test is very simple, VX9000 + 2 pieces of AP7532 in the same vlan.

VX running config:

What is wrong with my configuration?

Why I can’t make the upgrades working through RFDM AP?

Thanks,

Aviv

I can certainly testify that this works perfectly in WiNG-5. (Can’t imagine how it would’ve gotten messed up in WiNG-7 though). This topology is used for a HUGE number of deployments. If something was fundamentally broken in this regard, we’d have heard about it long before now.

From the controller, my output looks like this:

NX(config)#sh device-upgrade history on LAB
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Device RESULT TIME RETRIES UPGRADED-BY LAST-UPDATE-ERROR
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LAB-MCX done 2019-03-13 13:15:37 0 8533-Floor-1 -

8533-Floor-2 done 2019-03-13 13:14:39 0 8533-Floor-1 -

8533-Floor-2 done 2018-11-09 12:39:30 0 8533-Floor-1 -
Total number of entries displayed: 3

On the RFDM AP, the output shows this (the non-RFDM AP output is empty)

(You can see in the first column (Device) the listing of non-RFDM APs that this RFDM AP had upgraded.

Hi Avi,

Everything looks good. And how the upgrade process looks like? You can monitor it with "watch 4 sh device-upgrade status". Also the devices can skip the update while already running requested release and without "force" option in upgrade command..
