5.3.8.1 Upgrading AP-6532 Firmware from 5.1 to 5.2
Profile Management Configuration
An existing AP-6532 deployment running factory installed 5.1 version firmware can be upgrade to this most recent 5.2
version baseline. To upgrade an AP-6532 to the 5.2 version baseline:
Ensure you have the following resources:
• A computer with a SSH client and a FTP or TFTP server
• The latest AP-6532 5.2 image file in the computer’s FTP or TFTP directory.
• A PoE hub
1. Calculate the AP-6532's IP address.
The AP-6532 has an IP of 169.254.<last two digits of its MAC address in decimal>, with subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
For example, if the MAC address is 00-23-68-86-
48-18
, the last two digits of its IP address will be
72.24
(48 hexadecimal = 72 decimal, 18 hexadecimal = 24 decimal). So the IP address is 169.254.72.24, with subnet mask of
255.255.0.0.
2. Configure the computer with an IP address in the same subnet. For example, 169.254.0.1, and a subnet mask of
255.255.0.0.
3. Ping the AP-6532 from the computer to ensure IP connectivity.
4. Open an SSH session on the computer and connect to the AP-6532’s IP address.
5. Login with a username and password of
admin
/
motorola
. The CLI will prompt for a new password. Re-enter the
password and confirm.
6. Within the CLI, type
enable
.
7. Enter
commit write memory
to save the new password.
8. To upgrade firmware using a FTP server, use the
upgrade
command.
ftp://<username>:<password>@169.254.0.1/AP6532-5.2.0.0-050R.img
.
9. Alternatively, a user can upgrade the AP-6532 firmware using a TFTP server using the
upgrade
command.
(tftp://169.254.0.1/AP6532-5.2.0.0-050R.img).
The AP-6532 will now download the firmware from FTP/TFTP server. This process will take a few minutes.
10.When finished, type
reload
to reboot the AP-6532. Press 'y' when asked to confirm the reboot.
The AP-6532 will reboot and SSH session will be terminated. The reboot will take a couple of minutes.
11.Run a ping from the computer to the AP-6532. A ping will be timed out during the reboot.
12.When the ping resumes, start an SSH session again to the AP-6532.
13.Login to the AP-6532 using the new password and confirm the firmware upgrade is successful by issuing a
show version
command.
