58 of 69
4.6.5 ExtremeXOS Device Configuration
ExtremeXOS devices on which firmware version 30.3.1.6 is installed do not
download and install new firmware versions successfully via the ZTP+ process.
To correct the issue, access the Network > Firmware tab in Extreme
Management Center, select the ExtremeXOS device you are updating via ZTP+,
and change the Version field in the Details right-panel from builds/xos_
30.3/30.3.1.6 to 30.3.1.6.
4.7 Firmware Upgrade Configuration Information
Extreme Management Center supports firmware downloads and uploads to
devices using TFTP, FTP, SCP, and SFTP. However, before firmware images can
be downloaded or uploaded from the server, Extreme Management Center
needs the root path or directory for each of the protocols. The following default
root paths for each protocol are configurable from the Administration > Options
> Inventory Manager tab:
Protocol Root Path:
l TFTP: /tftpboot/firmware/images/
l FTP: /tftpboot/firmware/images/
l SCP: /root/firmware/images/
l SFTP: /root/firmware/images/
To upload firmware images that are 2 GB or less to the server, use the Extreme
Management Center Network > Firmware tab. For files larger than 2 GB, use a
third-party client (such as SCP, WinSCP, or FTP).
For example, to use SCP to upload a firmware image to the SCP root path on the
server, enter the following:
l
scp <LOCAL_FIRMWARE_PATH> root@<Extreme Management Center_
SERVER_IP>:/root/firmware/images
l Where:
l <Extreme Management Center_SERVER_IP>= IP Address to Extreme
Management Center Server
l <LOCAL_FIRMWARE_PATH>= fully qualified path to a firmware image on the
client machine
