Hello,
I couldn't find a firmware upgrade path to go from 3.96 to newer versions.
I supposed it would be 3.96 - 4.0 - 4.1 - 4.5.
Am I correct?
Thanks.

Hi,
For Cisco D9854/D9854-I, D9858, and D9824 Receiver/Decoder...
From R3.96 to R4.52, there is a known upgrade bug (CSCuu93140) so the suggestion is to perform a two-step upgrade (R3.96 -> R4.12 -> R4.52).
This CSCuu93140 bug is resolved from R4.60. So you can upgrade directly from R3.96 to R4.60 or higher without this known problem.
For more information, please see below Release Notes and Bug information links.
