"Illegal software format" error, when trying to update SLM224P firmware

[yiannis.zip]

I am trying to upgrade the firmware of SLM224P from 1.0 to 2.0 but it is not possible. I am getting the following error:

Upgrade/Backup Firmware/Language

Transfer Method: via TFTP via HTTP Save Action: Upgrade Backup File Type: Firmware Image Boot Code Language File Server Definition: By IP address By name IP Version: Version 6 Version 4 IPv6 Address Type: Link Local Global Link Local Interface: None TFTP Server IP Address/Name: Source File Name: (0/160 Characters Used) Destination File Name: (0/160 Characters Used) Transfer Method: via TFTP via HTTP Save Action: Upgrade Backup File Type: Firmware Image Boot Code Language File File Name: The firmware is upgraded to the inactive image file. You must activate the firmware using the "Active Image" page.

Here is some system info:

SF 200-24P 24-Port 10/100 PoE Smart Switch

PID VID: SLM224PT V01

I downloaded the firmware from this link: http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=282414086&softwareid=282463182&release=2.0.0.10&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest&i=rm

What am I doing wrong?

Yes,

their web page for SLM224P points to another firmware, incompatible with this switch.

The correct page is this (Search for SF200-24P):

http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=283773418&flowid=24306&softwareid=282463182&release=1.1.1.8&rellifecycle=&relind=AVAILABLE&reltype=latest

Hi,

Did you get the firmware?

I need SLM224g firmware 2.0.0.10 or 1.0.x.

I don't know if the SLM224P firmware fits the SLM224G.

But I would like to try the upgrade!

Can you make the firmware available?

Regards,
