8.7.x/8.8.x: "Check for New Version" => "No new version available"

    Posted Oct 29, 2021 07:17 AM
    Hello,

    on AP-535/AP-555 access points when I use the automatic firmware check within Maintenance => Firmware => Within "Automatic" click "Check for New Version", for:

    - releases 8.6.x it will find the current firmware
    - while releases 8.7.x and 8.8.x the message "No new version available"

    appears. Is there anything on 8.7 or 8.8 to get the automatic check running? Of course, access points have DNS, can ping and reach device.arubanetworks.com:443, "show activate status" shows no problems, time/NTP is correct, ...

    Regards

    That is (probably) because the 'Check for New Version' checks if there is a newer 'recommended' version. The latest conservative release is 8.6, and I think the 'recommended version' is 8.6.0.9 at the moment.

    Other firmware can be downloaded from ASP if you have an active support contract.

    So, it only works with 8.6?
    I was on 8.6.0.7 and it showed and allowed me to update to 8.6.0.15.

    I tried with
    - 8.7.1.3 => Current is 8.7.1.6 => But it showed "No new version available"
    - 8.8.0.1 => Current it 8.8.0.2 => But it showed "No new version available"

    It works with the recommended release only. Check for new version checks if there is a newer recommended release, apparently that is 8.6.0.15 at the moment.

    you need to go to ASP site and download the firmware.

    https://asp.arubanetworks.com/downloads;search=factory;products=Aruba%20Access%20Points;productSeries=Aruba%20207%20Series%20Campus%20Access%20Points;softwareMajorVersions=8.7

    Thank you for your answers. Perhaps one day there will be a function which will make it possible to use autoupdate for each major release branch.

    Just a note. Being on 8.10.0.4 (LSR) release I do not want my access points to upgrade to 8.11, but to 8.10.0.5 when hitting checking for new release:

    If you have an active service contract, you can download any version available from the Aruba Support Portal. Without contract, you can upgrade to the version that is offered in the automatic upgrade.

    Version 8.10.0.5 seems to require a support contract.

    Hi everyone, our 7005 controller image was deleted. How can I restore it or install a new image, please?

    This discussion is about Aruba Instant, not 7005 controllers. Please open a new discussion in the Wireless Access category.
