Hello,

My name is Jonathan and I am part of Small Business here at Cisco.

 

Please try the next steps if you keep having the issue with the firmware,

 

-Probably the reason that you get the error "Copy: Illegal software format", is because you tried to upgrade the firmware to the latest but whit this unit you should go little by little.

 

-So first please download the zip folder that contains both a firmware and a boot code the one that shows 1.4.1.3

 

-Then you need a TFTP server to upload the boot code once this is completed please try to update the firmware as normal to the same 1.4.1.3 and then try the latest. If for some reason the error keeps showing up please try a lower version for example 1.4.5.2 and then try again the latest.

 

I hope this helps.

Many thanks, i will try soon and back

UPDATES:

Solved the upgrade issue. I do have a SG300-20 with release 1.1.2.0.

First is to downgrade to Boot 1.3.5.06 (via TFT) and Image 1.3.5.5.58

Second upgrade to Image 1.4.1.3

Third upgrade to Image 1.4.9.4

End

 

I did followed your steps, I successfully tft the boot file but when I'm trying upgrade the firmware it gives me the same error. I even selected all lower versions still the same error.

Any idea?
