To update the IOM Infrastructure device software, in the CMC Web interface:

1. Go to Chassis Overview → I/O Module Overview → Update.

The IOM Firmware Update page is displayed.

Alternatively, go to any of the following:

• Chassis Overview → Update

• Chassis Overview → Chassis Controller → Update

• Chassis Overview → iKVM → Update

The Firmware Update page is displayed, which provides a link to access the IOM Firmware Update

page.

2. In the IOM Firmware Update page, in the IOM Firmware section, select the check box in the Update

column for the IOM you want to update the software and click Apply Firmware Update.

Alternatively, to rollback to the earlier versions of the software, select the check box in the Rollback

column.

3. Select the software image for the software update, using the Browse option. The name of Software

image gets displayed in the IOM Software Location field.

The Update Status section provides software update or rollback status information. A status indicator

displays on the page while the image file uploads. File transfer time varies based on connection

speed. When the internal update process begins, the page automatically refreshes and the Firmware

update timer is displayed.

NOTE: Do not click the Refresh icon or navigate to another page during the file transfer.

NOTE: The file transfer timer is not displayed when updating IOMINF firmware.

When the update or rollback is complete, there is a brief loss of connectivity to the IOM device since

it resets and the new firmware is displayed on the IOM Firmware and Software page.

NOTE: The FTOS or IOM software version is displayed in the format X-Y(A-B). For example,

8-3(1-4). If the Rollback Version of the FTOS image is an old image which uses the old version

string format 8-3-1-4, then the Current Version is displayed as 8-3(1-4).

Managing VLAN for IOM

Virtual LANs (VLANs) for IOMs allow you to separate users into individual network segments for security

and other reasons. By using VLANs you can isolate the networks for individual users on a 32 port switch.

You can associate selected ports on a switch with selected VLAN and treat these ports as a separate

switch.

CMC Web Interface allows you to configure the in-band management ports (VLAN) on the IOMs.
