AP 420, Procurve manager 2.1.5 firmware upgrade

[Christian Ryeng]

Hello, I recently upgraded two of our companys 420 accesspoints with the new 2.1.5 firmware via cli, and this worked fine.

Then, i decided to test it with the Procurve Manager, and that failed hard. This is what the eventlog says:
Event type:
Application Event
Trap type:

Severity:

Event Description
10.xx.xx.xx Error

I knew from browsing the forums that i had to set the communication paramters in the device before, but now the accesspoints have done a factory reset and is running 2.0.43-temp2 firmware. The old firmware was 2.1.2 and it was running boot rom version 3.0.6.

What has happened? Did someone set up us the bomb? o_O

Hello Christian,

Is this something that you were able to duplicate more than once, or was this a result from one test? If the latter, then I would suggest opening a new call with ProCurve Support to report this issue (if you have not done so already). I have seen, on very rare occasions, what you have mentioned, and it is usually brought on by a corrupted image, or an upgrade that was prematurely stopped or lost connectivity to the network. Would need more detail though.

Thanks ... greg
