Hi guys I have a wc7500 with firmware 6.0.1.0 , i want to upgrade to latest version 6.5.3.2. But before to go to 6.5.3.2 the article say to go to 6.0.1R.0 . But i am not able to find this version 6.0.1R.0 ? Where i have to download this version. Question : What's is MIB Version 6.0.1.0 latest is MIB Version 6.5.1.8 . What MIB versio is my device ? I can see only firmware version on me device that is 6.0.1.0 Can someone help me step by step on this process . I have also 6 WAC720 and 1 WND930 connected with my WC7500 controller. I want to upgrade also the firmware of these 7 devices. How to do this ? thanks br leo

    Hi leofezollari,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

     

    Download firmware v6.5.3.2 here, it is a .zip file.  You will need to unzip it then you will find the firmware v6.0.1R.0.  

     

    Since your 6 WAC720 and 1 WND930 access points are managed by the WC7500,  the WC7500 itself automatically upgrades the firmware of the access points connected to it. 

     

    If ever you are using a network management software (such as NMS300) which monitors the WC7500, then you will need to use the MIB for the WC7500.
