upgrade of OLD switches

Fri Jul 20, 2018 2:38 pm

Hi guys,

I've got two REALLY OLD WS-12-250A switches in production still running very strong I might add, both having multiple years of uptime right now that I would really like to upgrade but I would just like to know if it's okay to upgrade them to the newest 1.5.0?

They are old enough that they still have the fully enclosed rackmount chassis build like a tank!

They are board Rev D

They are both running V1.4.7 right now.

Are these safe to run the newest 1.5.0?

I would reboot them first from the UI if they have an uptime of years then upgrade them.

Good Call on the reboot!

I'll do that and report back.
