Rolling back firmware individually

SprocketScientist — Mon, 03 Mar 2025 12:24:08 GMT

I recently rolled back the switch firmware in an org with 4 networks.

My intention initially was to only roll back 1 of the networks. However the rollback wizard only lets you roll back ALL networks.

Due to the urgency I proceeded with the rollback. To my surprise only the current network was affected. Despite that the wizard was showing all networks.

Is this expected behavior??

I would very much like to be able to control rollback on a per-network or per-device basis.

Cheers!

This will partly come down to whether you are using Template networks or not, as when you chose what to upgrade (and presumably downgrade), all networks bound to a template are upgraded at the same time.

Are your firmware updates setup or configured to use staged upgrades?

Each device type in each network is managed independently. So you could have an MR on 30.5 in one network and running 31.1 on another.

Providing you used the 'rollback' button on a single network as below, you're correct in that this should have only rolled back that single network in the batch:

As for it displaying the fact that this is rolling back all networks in that batch, this is unfortunately a known UI-only issue on our side 😟. The dialog will state that all networks are rolling back, but the action will only roll back the selected network.

Hopefully helpful!
