Important Information
If you currently have FW 14.5.x, do one of the following procedures to update FW:
- Option A: Run FW DUP 16.0.x on a supported OS and then perform an AC power cycle
- Option B: Lifecycle Controller Method
1. Run FW DUP 15.0.28 on a supported OS first and then perform an AC power cycle
2. Upgrade to 15.5.0 via Lifecycle Controller and reboot
3. Upgrade from 15.5.0 to 16.0.x via Lifecycle Controller
If you currently have FW 15.0.28, do one of the following procedures to update FW:
- Option A: Run FW DUP 16.0.x on a supported OS
- Option B: Lifecycle Controller Method
1. Upgrade to 15.5.0 via Lifecycle Controller and reboot
2. Upgrade from 15.5.0 to 16.0.x via Lifecycle Controller
The 15.5.0 FW-DUP is required when updating firmware in Lifecycle Controller. This sequence is referred to as a two-step firmware update process and is required due to an Option ROM mapping change in the firmware.
If you are upgrading the firmware from 14.5.x or later to version 16.0.x in Windows or Linux, then you do not need to apply 15.5.0 first.
On the Intel(R) Ethernet 10G 4P X540/I350 rNDC, an AC power cycle is required after applying 16.0.x
DO NOT APPLY THIS FIRMWARE UPDATE FROM AN OPERATING SYSTEM THAT WAS BOOTED TO WITH ISCSI BOOT OR FCOE BOOT.
THIS FIRMWARE RELEASE DOES NOT APPLY TO THE FM120 Network Devices.
============================

- Intel(R) Ethernet 10G 4P X540/I350 rNDC with PBA number G14843-xxx or G59298-xxx
requires an AC power cycle after firmware update to 16.0.x
============================
* To perform an AC power cycle, you must do the following:
============================
1. Shut down the system if it is powered up
2. Unplug all AC power cords from the system
3. Leave the AC power cords unplugged for 15 seconds to drain power from the system
4. Plug in AC power cords to the system
- Option A: Run FW DUP 16.0.x on a supported OS and then perform an AC power cycle
