Updating firmware on CPE devices with specific tags

To update firmware on CPE devices with specific tags:

1. In the menu, go to the Scheduler section.

   The table of scheduled tasks is displayed.

2. In the upper part of the page, click + Delayed task.
3. This opens a window; in that window, in the Type drop-down list, select Delayed firmware update.
4. In the Name field, enter the name of the scheduled task.
5. In the Version drop-down list, select the previously uploaded firmware.
6. In the Completion date and time field, enter the date and time when you want to run the scheduled task. By default, the date and time specified is the date and time when you started creating the scheduled task.
7. If you want to reset the CPE device to factory settings after updating the firmware, clear the Save configuration check box. If the check box is selected, your existing CPE device settings are not modified after a firmware update. This check box is selected by default.

   When a CPE device is reset to factory settings, it is disconnected from the orchestrator. To reconnect the CPE device to the orchestrator, you must perform automatic registration (ZTP).

8. The Force update check box lets you force the firmware update, even if the CPE's internal check shows that the new firmware is incompatible with the old one. This check box is cleared by default.
9. In the Tags field, enter the tags of CPE devices on which you want to update the firmware.
10. Click Next.

    Two tables of CPE devices are displayed. Firmware of CPE devices in the upper table is updated. Firmware of CPE devices in the lower table is not updated. Information about devices is displayed in the following columns:

    • DPID is the DPID of the CPE device.
    • Model is the model of the CPE device.
    • Name is the name of the CPE device.
    • SW version is the firmware version of the CPE device.
    • Transport tenant is the tenant to which the CPE device is added.
    • Reason is the reason why the firmware cannot be updated. This column is displayed only in the lower table.

    If you find that the lower table includes CPE devices on which you do not want to update the firmware, you can move these devices to the upper table.

11. Click Create.

The scheduled task for updating the firmware is created and displayed in the table. The firmware update on the CPE device starts at the configured time.
