Mandatory Upgrade Steps from a Pre-08.0.80 Non-UFI Version to a 09.0.10a or Later UFI Version

Upgrading from a pre-08.0.80 non-UFI version to a FastIron 09.0.10a or later UFI version is a two-step upgrade process. For example, if you want to upgrade a stacking unit or a standalone device from FastIron 08.0.70 to FastIron 09.0.10a or later, complete the following steps.

  1. Download the 08.0.80f non-UFI using one of the transfer methods listed in File Transfer Method and Commands Required for Upgrading from Pre-08.0.80 Non-UFI Version, and reboot the device with the FastIron 08.0.80f image using the boot system flash primary command. The system uses the FastIron 08.0.80f image. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration using the write memory command.
    Note: Downloading the non-UFI image and rebooting the device is mandatory because it migrates the configured access control list (ACL) configurations without sequence numbers to the new ACL format. The system will otherwise lose the previously configured ACL configuration without sequence numbers while upgrading from a pre-08.0.90 non-UFI version to a UFI version.
  2. Copy the FastIron 09.0.10a or later UFI to the primary flash partition using the same method, and reboot the device again.
    Note: The show version command may display a boot code mismatch message after the upgrade.
    Copy the FastIron 09.0.10a or later UFI again to the secondary flash partition to avoid boot image mismatch.
Note: You must download the FastIron 08.0.95 image using one of the transfer methods listed in File Transfer Method and Commands Required for Upgrading from Pre-08.0.80 Non-UFI Version to upgrade a device from FastIron 08.0.80 to FastIron 09.0.10a.
