device Device on which the query is run.

image file Image file on which the query is run.

Examples:

Query the FW on the device.

# mstflint -d 41:00.0 query

Query the FW image file.

# mstflint -i 25408-2_42_5000-MCX354A-FCB_A2.bin query

Security Attributes field in Query output:

This field lists the security attributes of the device’s firmware, where:

Secure-fw: This attribute indicates that this binary/device supports secure-

firmware-updates. It means that only officially signed binaries can be loaded to

the device from the host, and that the current binary is signed.

Signed-fw: This attribute indicates that that this binary is signed and that the

device can verify digital signatures of new updates. However, unlike, secure-fw,

there might still be methods to upload unsigned binaries to the device from the

host.

debug: This attribute indicate that this binary is (or this device runs) a debug-

version. Debug versions are custom made for specific data-centers or labs, and

can only be installed after a corresponding debug-fw token is pushed to the

device. The debug-fw-token, which is digitally signed, includes a list of the target

devices MAC addresses.

dev: This attribute indicates that the firmware is signed with development (test)

key.

Default Update Method" field in Query Full output:{This field reflect the method which

mstflint will use in order to update the device. The user can enforce a different method

using the –no_fw_ctrl or the –ocr flags.The default methods are:

Legacy: mstflint will use the low level flash access registers.

fw_ctrl: mstflint will operate the ‘firmware component update’ state machine.

Querying the MFA2 File

This capability enables the user to query the MFA2 file using a PSID.

To query, run:

flint -i <mfa2_file> --psid <PSID> q

mstflint: Setting GUIDs and MACs

To set GUIDs/MACs/UID for the given device, use the ‘sg’ (set guids) command with the-guid(s), -uid

and/or -mac(s) flags.

4th Generation (Group I) Devices

On 4th generation/Group I devices, the “sg” command can operate on both the image file and theimage

on the flash. When running the “sg” command on an image on the flash, if the GUIDs/MACs/UIDs in the

image are non-blank, the mstflint will re-burn the current image using the givenGUIDs/MACs/UIDs.
