Resolved problems in R6626 LSD62272 Symptom: RRPP fails to operate when the RRPP control VLAN ID is identical with the sub interface VLAN ID. Condition: When the RRPP control VLAN ID is identical with the sub interface VLAN ID. LSD62435 Symptom: A sub interface fails to forward traffic to another chassis when its VLAN ID is identical with the MAD VLAN ID. Condition: When sub interface’s VLAN ID is identical with the MAD VLAN ID.

Appendix B Software Upgrade Software used for upgrade Boot ROM images Boot ROM images are used to upgrade the Boot ROM program of cards, including the main processing units (MPUs) and line processing units (LPUs). A Boot ROM image is a .btw file. System software images System software images are used at switch startup. The HP 7500 series support two types of system software image: Main system software image—The default system software image a switch uses for startup.
NOTE: HP recommends you to upgrade software from the CLI when your switch operates normally. To ensure that the active and standby MPUs use the same software version, upgrade them by using the same method. Make sure the system software and Boot ROM are compatible. For the compatibility between the system software and Boot ROM, see the hardware and software compatibility matrix in the Release Notes. You can upgrade the Boot ROM for the LPUs from the CLI only.
