Patches in the system cannot be rolled backAccording to great Huawei documentation that I could find on the Enterprise website, the procedure for this firmware upgrade is the following:
But the patches and firmware versions indiced below are not available for download on the Enterprise website and that is the one we have access to.
In this case, the patch SPH111 and the firmware R012C00SPH108 would be needed to be ready to upgrade to the final version.
The only firmware versions that are available on the Enterprise website are the following:
How are we able to acquire the older firmware to perform the whole firmware upgrade procedure?
The complete Huawei documentation on OLT firmware upgrades is attached.
Thank you!

Thank you for making that available to me, Mr. Chenxintao! Do I need the patch SPH111 as well for the R011 version as the indication shows or I can upgrade directly to the version that you sent?

Hi, my dear! Yes, you need to install this patch before upgrading to RO12CO0SPH108. However, because this patch has reached EOS, you need to contact local Huawei engineers to obtain the patch. Thank you! |
