Upgrading networking switch using CLI
NOTE: You can update any network switch with lower versions to 10.5.0.7 directly. However, upgrading to version 10.5.1.X can be
done only from 10.5.0.7.
NOTE: Upgrade the MX9116n and MX5108n switches to 10.5.1.X only if the switches are running 10.5.0.7 or later. While updating,
ensure that the IOMs in the group are not more than six per upgrade job.
NOTE: To upgrade the networking switch from 10.4.0E (R3S or R4S), upgrade and reload both the VLT nodes simultaneously.
Perform the update during the maintenance window as the data traffic may be affected during the upgrade.
Important notes to upgrade:
● Versions 10.5.0.1 and later—For a fabric or VLT, upgrade one IOM and then proceed with its peer after the completion of the first
IOM.
● Versions 10.4.0E(R4S) and earlier to 10.5.0.7—Update both the IOMs of a fabric or VLT and reboot them simultaneously.
● Version 10.5.0.7—Upgrade up to maximum of six IOMs together.
● Versions earlier than 10.5.0.7—Upgrade up to maximum of four IOMs together.
