Upgrading PoE Firmware on an Alpine Switch with a PoE Module
If you are using an Alpine switch with a PoE module, upgrade the PoE firmware. A version of PoE
firmware is built into ExtremeWare to allow easy replacement if necessary. If the current micro
controller firmware becomes corrupted, or requires an upgrade, ExtremeWare logs a message in the
syslog prompting for a firmware upgrade.
NOTE
Alpine switches with PoE modules require user intervention using a CLI command to upgrade the PoE
firmware. Until this firmware update is completed, the PoE ports are not powered up.
1 Use the following command to download the firmware to the selected slot:
download firmware slot <slot_number>
2 Verify that the PoE firmware loaded correctly using the show inline-power stats <slot
number>
command.
If the upgrade is not successful, perform the upgrade procedure again.
