Upgrading PicOS on Switches

Upgrading PicOS on Switches

By using AmpCon-Campus, you can upgrade PicOS on a single switch or on multiple switches at scale.

Before You Upgrade

Before upgrading a switch to PicOS 4.6.0E or later, if both EVPN VXLAN and static VXLAN have been configured on the switch, you must manually delete the static VXLAN configuration.

Otherwise, the upgrade will fail and terminate with the following error message:

Error: The current version only supports EVPN VXLAN. Please delete the static VXLAN configuration before upgrading. Upgrade aborts.

Error: The current version only supports EVPN VXLAN. Please delete the static VXLAN configuration before upgrading. Upgrade aborts.
