Brocade 200E Upgrade Firmware

Hi,

 

We are running v6.2.2d on our switches and would like to upgrade to v6.2.2e, what is the upgrade path? can we go from 6.2.2d to v6.2.2e directly?

 

is v6.2.2e the latest FW version for 8/24 Brocade 200E switches? Thanks

The latest firmware for AM868A 8/24 B-series switch is 7.0.0.a; update to 6.3.x first.

Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: Brocade 200E Upgrade Firmware

I dont think thats right, see below:

 

Fabric OS 7.0.0a is not supported on any 4 Gbps or earlier switches.

 

Got that line from http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=3742038&swItem=co-94670-1&prodNameId=3742039&swEnvOID=54&swLang=13&taskId=135&mode=4&idx=0

 

These are Brocade 200E switches which I think are 4GBPS, right?

Re: Brocade 200E Upgrade Firmware

If you say 8/24 it means 24 ports, 8Gbit/s

Hope this helps!

Re: Brocade 200E Upgrade Firmware

The 200e must be HP's 4/8, so latest firmware is 6.2.2e.

Update directly from your version.

Hope this helps!
