Citrix ADC MPX
Upgrade the firmware
Important:
• The upgrade script takes the appliance off the network. The time taken to complete the of-
fline NIC firmware upgrade varies by platform. For example, on an MPX 14000 platform with
6 Fortville NICs, the total time to upgrade is around 30 min.
• After updating the firmware, ensure that the software version on the appliance supports the
new firmware.
The firmware upgrade scripts upgrade the NIC firmware to version 7.00. This upgrade is performed on
Fortville 10G and 40G NICs manufactured by Silicom or Intel, and Fortville 25G NICs manufactured by
Silicom.
Notes:
• After updating the firmware version on the NIC to 7.00 you cannot downgrade the NIC to an
earlier version.
• Upgrading some Fortville NICs might take multiple attempts. For example, updating some NICs
to firmware version 7.00 might take up to three attempts.
To upgrade the firmware, at the command prompt type:
1
>
shell
2
root@ns
#
cd
/

root@ns
#
sh upgrade_fortville_nics
