Upgrading Field Programmable Hardware Devices Overview
This document describes how to perform upgrades in the field on the hardware programmable firmware of the following Cisco Catalyst 9800 Series Wireless Controllers.
· Cisco Catalyst 9800-80 Wireless Controller · Cisco Catalyst 9800-40 Wireless Controller · Cisco Catalyst 9800-L Wireless Controller If the controller contains an old version of the hardware programmable firmware, then that hardware programmable firmware may need to be upgraded. To do this upgrade, a hardware programmable package is released to the customers. Generally, an upgrade is only necessary in cases where a system message indicates one of the field programmable devices needs an upgrade or a Cisco technical support representative suggests an upgrade.
Note During hw-programmables upgrade, the controller may reboot several times and it is not advisable to power cycle the device during this period as it may lead to device failure. Remember that a typical upgrade process would take about 30 minutes to complete the cycle.

Upgrading Field Programmable Hardware Devices Overview
Important
· Schedule a planned maintenance window before starting the upgrade activity. · DO NOT disturb the device or power cycle the device till the upgrade activity is complete.
ROMMON Images
A ROMMON image is a software package used by ROM Monitor (ROMMON) software on a controller. The software package is separate from the consolidated package normally used to boot the controller. An independent ROMMON image (software package) may occasionally be released and the controller can be upgraded with the new ROMMON software.

Upgrading Field Programmable for Cisco Catalyst 9800-80 Wireless Controller
This section explains field programmable installation procedure for the Cisco Catalyst 9800-80 Wireless Controller.
Before you begin
Note To upgrade the ROMMON from 16.12(5R) (or a previous version) to higher versions, you should first upgrade ROMMON to 17.3(3r) and then to the desired version. This procedure applies to downgrades as well. To downgrade ROMMON from a higher version to 16.12(5R) (or an older version), you should first downgrade ROMMON to 17.3(3r) and then to 16.12(5R). · Upgrade path: 16.12(5R) > 17.3(3R) · Downgrade path: 17.3(3R) > 16.12(5R)
Verify the current ROMMON version using the following commands:

Procedure
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5
Run the upgrade command on the active device.
Device# upgrade rom-monitor filename bootflash:rommonfile.pkg chassis active r0
The ROMMON gets upgraded and requires a reboot. Run the following command on the current active to complete the upgrade.
Device# redundancy force-switchover
After running this command, wait for the controller to join the HA pair and proceed to the next step. Run the upgrade command on the standby device.
Device# upgrade rom-monitor filename bootflash:rommonfile.pkg chassis active r0
The ROMMON gets upgraded and requires a reboot. Run the following command on the standby device to complete the upgrade.
Device# redundancy force-switchover
After running this command, wait for the controller to join the HA pair. Use the following show commands to verify the updates on the HA setup.
Device# show rom-monitor chassis active r0
This verifies the ROMMON version on the active device.
Device# show rom-monitor chassis standby r0
This verifies the ROMMON version on the standby device.
