  • 1.  Aruba 305 firmware version 9.0.0.0

    Posted Jun 14, 2019 09:19 AM

    Early Monday morning I updated the firmware for a couple of our Aruba 305's by using the web gui. The version that installed is labeled as 9.0.0.0 which I do not believe exists. Now I cannot get back to the web gui and keep getting error: This site cannot be reached. I can however get to the AP via SSH. When I run show version it shows as 9.0.0.0. Is there a way to revert back to version 8.3.0.6?

    Can you do a write erase all?

    I am sure I could but I was hoping for a solution that didn't set it back to factory default. Any other suggestions, or is that my only option?

    You could downgrade the IAP firmware via the commandline:

    Check the show image version output, if you find 8.3.0.6 image on the other partition just do "switch-partition-reboot" on the IAP shell
