Upgrading VX9000

[mmouille]

Hi,

we have a VX9000 with around 250 AP's connected to it on 5 different sites currently running version 5.9.1.5-001R. I saw that the latest available version is 7.7.1.4-003R would it be possible to upgraed without in-between upgrade ? Is there an upgrade path somewhere to follow and not make any mistakes ?

I've read the guide here for the upgrade : https://extremeportal.force.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000081743 Is it still the good one ?

Many thanks for your help. Best regards. Max.

Hello Mmouille,

As Christoph stated, the article is still valid and should be followed when upgrading VX9000 with remote site APs. To upgrade directly from v5.9.1.x to v7.7.1.x, we need to know what AP models are currently deployed. Once we have this information, we can provide guidance.

At this time, we strongly recommend WiNG v7.7.1.3, due to some known issues with v7.7.1.4.

Please review the WiNG v7.7l.4 release notes (Resolved Issues List) and see if you currently have any of the AP models listed. If you don't, please upgrade to v7.7.1.3.

Thanks,

Chris Frazee
