HP Procurve 1810-8G / software version PL 2.08

[gntavelis]

Hello,

I just bought from an auction site a Procurve 1810-8G (J9802A) v2. It came with software version PL 1.5. I searched and finally found some updates for this switch. According to HP the latest software version is PL 2.08. 

This is the link with the latest and older releases: HPE Link

I was able to flash the switch with software version PL 2.07 successfully. The PL 2.08 contains a file 'HP1810-GE.bin' and NOT an img file like all the others software versions. How i can flash the switch to pl 2.08?

Thank you

In case that someone have the same question, in order to upgrade to PL2.08 via web interface of the switch, from Maintenance > Update Manager > Update Method 'HTTP' > Browse for file 'PL.2.08.gz' (YES just leave it exactly like you downloaded from the hpe site) > Update type 'code' > Image (in my case is the active image) and then press download.

Voila you just updated to 2.08
