FW release version clarification

ohabib — Mon, 30 Jan 2023 07:48:37 GMT

What is the latest released FW RUCKUS ICX FastIron ? I see that "08.0.95h (GA)" is newer than "09.0.10d" but version number is kind of the other way around .. what is the difference between 08.xx.xxx and 09.xx.xxx ? which one is newer and why I see new released for 08.xx.xxx?

Hi @ohabib

If you are upgrading an ICX switch for the first time from a version earlier than FastIron 08.0.95, RUCKUS recommends that you upgrade to FastIron 08.0.95d as the intermediate version and then upgrade to FastIron 09.0.10a or later. This step is required to ensure that the FPGA version is compatible with the target release.

Please follow the below guide for the better understanding of the FW RUCKUS ICX FastIron version.

Hi Jayavidhya

I'm currently running 09.0.10dT211. I do not understand why Ruckus still releasing under the 08.x.xxx if they already moved to 09.x.xxx a while back

 Compressed Pri Code size = 29360128, Version:09.0.10dT211 (SPS09010d.bin)

Is that the latest FW for ICX7150 ?

Hi @ohabib

Basically 08.0.95 version is the recommended version to upgrade.

Also 08.0.95 is not the latest FW for 09.0.10, newer version includes newer features and 08.0.95 is the more stable one for upgradation.
