Syntax

request wireless-wan adapter firmware upgrade

Release Information

Command introduced in Junos Release 11.4R2.

Description

Upgrade the firmware on the CX111 adapter.

Options

auto— Automatically upgrades the firmware. In this mode, the most current firmware image from the Junos Cloud server is used for the upgrade. The 3G WAN link on CX111 adpater must be connected.

manual—Manually upgrades the firmware. In this mode, you must provide the URL for the firmware image to be used for upgrade.

Firmware upgrade is possible with or without 3G WAN link connection on CX111 adapter.

The URL can point to an HTTP server running on:

  • SRX Series Device

    If 3G WAN link on CX111 adapter is not connected, then firmware image can be copied to the SRX Series device for upgrade, and the webserver on an SRX Series device can be used for upgrade.

Steps for firmware upgrade with the file path on an SRX Series device:

  1. Configure HTTP server on the port to which CX111 adapter is connected on an SRX Series device.

    For example: set system services web-management http interface <physical interface connected to CX111>

    Note: The upgrade from webserver running on an SRX Series device works, when the server is running on the same subnet as the management VLAN subnet of CX111 adapter.

  2. Copy the firmware image to /jail/var/tmp/ location on SRX Series device.

    Note: Use binary mode to transfer the firmware image to the SRX Series device. The filename must have .bin as suffix.

  3. Enter the firmware upgrade command with the URL pointing to the firmware image on an SRX Series device.

    For example: http://<ip-address-of-http-port> /cx_fw/ <image.bin>

  • External HTTP server

    If 3G WAN link on CX111 adapter is connected, then HTTP URL pointing to firmware image on public webserver can be used for upgrade.

Steps for firmware upgrade with the file on external HTTP server

  1. Copy the firmware image file to the external webserver HTTP root directory.
  2. Enter the firmware upgrade command with the URL listed as follows:

    For example: http://<web-server-address>/<image.bin>

    Note: If there are packet drops to the external webserver over CX111 adapter 3G WAN connection, then the firmware upgrade might fail.
