release
This chapter describes how to upgrade the Summit WM Software from various past releases to V5R3
release on various platforms.
The topics in this chapter are organized as follows:
● Upgrade matrix
● Upgrading the Summit WM Software via GUI
● Upgrading the Summit WM Software via the CLI
● Migrating the platform configuration
● Upgrading the two Controllers operating in ‘Availability’ mode
● Upgrading from any past release less than V4R1 GP7 release
NOTE
When you upgrade the Summit WM Software, the previous SSL Configuration file is replaced by a new one.
Consequently, the manual edits that were made in the previous SSL Configuration file are lost. If you have made any
manual edits in the previous SSL Configuration file, you must make the similar edits in the new SSL Configuration
file. In addition, if you have installed digital certificate for implementing internal Captive Portal authentication, you
must re-install the same digital certificate after the upgrade. For more information, see the Summit WM Solutions
Guide.
