Once a valid firmware image is uploaded, a firmware image confirmation table appears with Preserve Settingcheck box. If the firmware update proceeds with preserve setting checked, FPC configurations are kept and applied after the firmware is updated. The settings preserved include:
  • SMTP
  • SNMP
  • PEF
  • Network configuration
  • Time setting (always kept regardless if Preserve Setting is checked)
  • User account
  • Web service
Note
FPC will automatically reboot if you choose to cancel the firmware update process after uploading the firmware image.

During updating, you are directed to a loading page where all FPC functions are locked.

SMTP/SNMP/PEF tabs

Configured SMTP and SNMP traps allow you to monitor chassis for selected events. SMTP/SNMP trap event types can be set in the PEF (Platform Event Filter) tab. SMTP email-alert and SNMP trap can be enabled, configured, and tested in the SMTP and SNMP tabs respectively. Global Alerting Enable in PEF tab also needs to be checked to enable email alerts. For SNMP trap type, check the Generate PEF box for targeted type of events. For SMTP trap, all the events will be sent to destination email address when Global Alerting Enable is checked.
