New Dell Networking OS Version 9.14(2.16) Features
The following features are integrated into the Dell Networking 9.14.2 branch through this release:
None
Restrictions
Prerequisite steps to upgrade the Dell Networking OS from earlier version to 9.14.2.0 or later:
- Uninstall the older version of the Open Automation (OA) package
- Upgrade the Dell Networking OS to 9.14.2.0 or later version
- Install the following OA packages from the respective upgraded version:
- SmartScripts
- Puppet
- Open management infrastructure (OMI)
- SNMP MIB
Prerequisite steps to downgrade the Dell Networking OS from 9.14.2.0 or later to the earlier version:
- Uninstall the OA package of 9.14.2.0 or later version
- Downgrade the Dell Networking OS to an earlier version
- Install the respective OA package from an earlier version
For more information about installing, uninstalling and upgrading the Dell Networking OS and OA package, see the respective Dell System Release Notes.
If you downgrade the Dell Networking OS version from 9.14.2.16 to 9.11.0.0 or any older versions, the system displays the following error message even though there is no functional impact:
CDB boot error: C.cdb file format
Before downgrading, save the current configuration and then remove the CDB files (confd_cdb.tar.gz.version and confd_cdb.tar.gz). To remove the files, use the following steps:
DellEMC#write memory DellEMC#delete flash://confd_cdb.tar.gz.version DellEMC#delete flash://confd_cdb.tar.gz DellEMC#reload
While deploying the system in the normal-reload mode in BMP configuration, use the ip ssh server enable command at the beginning of the startup configuration if the write memory command is used at the end of the configuration.
REST API does not support AAA authentication.
The following features are not available in the Dell Networking OS from version 9.7(0.0):
- PIM ECMP
- Static IGMP join (ip igmp static-group)
- IGMP querier timeout configuration (ip igmp querier-timeout)
- IGMP group join limit (ip igmp group join-limit)
- Half-Duplex mode is not supported.
When FRRP is enabled in a VLT domain, no flavor of Spanning tree should concurrently be enabled on the nodes of that specific VLT domain. In essence FRRP and xSTP should not co-exist in a VLT environment.
Changes to Default Behavior and CLI Syntax
The following behavior and CLI changes are applicable to the S3048–ON switch with Dell Networking OS version 9.14(2.16):
None
Documentation Corrections
This section describes the errors identified in the current release of the Dell Networking OS.
- The router bgp command allows you to configure only one L3 interface with an IPv4 address. The Configuration guide does not mention this limitation and will be corrected in the next release of the guide.
Deferred Issues
Issues that appear in this section were reported in Dell Networking OS version 9.14(2.0) as open, but have since been deferred. Deferred caveats are those that are found to be invalid, not reproducible, or not scheduled for resolution.

Upgrading ONIE on the S3048-ON
To upgrade the ONIE package you have installed, use one of the following two processes: zero touch (dynamic) update or manual update.
- Zero touch (dynamic): Copy the update ONIE installer and the DIAG installer for your system to the TFTP/HTTP server. Configure the DHCP options using the ONIE specifications shown at the following link: http://opencomputeproject.github.io/onie/docs/design-spec/updater.html
- Manual: Copy the image onto the TFTP/HTTP servers and boot ONIE. Update the ONIE using the
onie-self-update
command, then download and run an ONIE updater image. The supported URL types are: HTTP, FTP, TFTP, and FILE.
S3048-ON image>>>> onie-updater-x86_64-s3000_c2338-r0
3. UPGRADING ONIE ON AN EXISTING S3048-ON SYSTEM.
The following example uses HTTP to upgrade ONIE.

Manual Upgrade Procedure
Follow these steps carefully to upgrade your S3048-ON systems:
- Dell Networking recommends that you back up your startup configuration and any important files and directories to an external media prior to upgrading the system.
- ℹ️ NOTE: If you are upgrading from Dell Networking OS version 9.10.0.1P5 or earlier, you cannot directly upgrade to version 9.10.0.1P13 or above. Upgrade to version 9.10.0.1P8 first and then upgrade to the required version.
