Obtaining Updated Software Images
In order to upgrade your devices, you must have the new software or BootROM image stored locally on
the EPICenter server. If you have a support contract with Extreme, you can download software and
BootROM images from Extreme to your local EPICenter server.
The
Display Software Images Update
window displays a list of the available software on the Extreme
server, and allows you to connect directly to Extreme Networks to download the most current
ExtremeWare software images and BootROM images to your local EPICenter server. After you
download the new images, you can use the images to upgrade your managed devices and modules.
NOTE
Before you can download the software images, you must have a current support contract as well as a user name and
password to obtain access to the Extreme Networks server.
NOTE
You cannot download SSH-capable versions of the software images using the Firmware Manager’s image update
feature. You must obtain SSH-capable images outside of EPICenter, and place them in the images or slotImages
subdirectories (see
“Software and BootROM Image Locations” on page 175
). SSH-capable images are subject to
export restrictions, and require a special license. To request SSH code, contact Technical Support.
For ExtremeXOS, modular software packages also cannot be downloaded using the Firmware Manager’s image update
feature. You must also obtain those images outside of EPICenter, and place them in the images or slotImages
subdirectories
Downloading the software or BootROM images from Extreme Networks does not automatically
upgrade the devices with the new images—it just stores them with the EPICenter server.
Obtaining New Software Images
To obtain a current software image, click the
Update
button at the top of the main Firmware Manager
window, or select the
Update
command from the Firmware menu. This opens the Display Software
Images Updates window, as shown in
Figure 82
.
You can also access the Display Software Images Updates window by clicking the
Display Updates...
button from the Upgrade Wizard window, or from the Select Software Image window as described in
the section,
“Specifying the Current Software Versions” on page 194
.
NOTE
If you declined to enable Automatic Information Updates when you installed the EPICenter server, the list of images
in this display may not reflect the most current versions available from Extreme Networks. You can enable
information updates in the Admin applet, through the External Connections server properties.
