Upgrading Firmware on GS752TP switches

[PTCTP]

Greetings all,

Looking to upgrade the firmware on infrastructure switches at a clients site.  They're all GS752TP switches.

Reading through other posts here, NetGear is recommending the switches be defaulted, updated then reconfigured from scratch.  Is that correct?

Hi PTCTP,

Welcome to NETGEAR community!

If the switches configuration are saved, then can upgrade firmware directly, the configuration will not be lost.You can compare with the configuration files between before the upgrade and after the upgrade.

Do not need to restore the default values then to do upgrade firmware.
