Upgrade the LOM firmware on a Citrix ADC MPX appliance
October 18, 2022
Citrix has automated the upgrade of LOM firmware within Citrix ADC MPX soware. It is no longer
necessary to know your hardware platform or download any LOM firmware.
Note
This procedure requires two reboots to complete and therefore a disruption in production traic
is expected. Citrix recommends that you perform the upgrade during a maintenance window. In
a high availability setup, perform the upgrade on the secondary node to minimize disruption to
production traic. The upgrade_bmc.sh script is supported on the following platforms:
• MPX 5900
• MPX 8005
• MPX 8900
• MPX 11500
• MPX 11515
• MPX 14000
• MPX 15000
• MPX 22000
• MPX 25000
