Upgrade C9300-48S

[Robo.Srobo]

Hi everyone.

I'm gonna upgrade IOS-XE of our L3 Cisco C9300-48S. Now, switch running on version 17.3.2r, I think that is Amsterdam version. So I would like to ask, which version of IOS-XE is better for upgrade?  I mean, more stable, more fixed bugs, etc. 

I wanna use Cupertino-17.8.1 ED, but if somebody has bad experiences, maybe should I use earlier version?

Thanks.

Hi

 Are you facing any problem on this current version? Are you seeking some new feature? If you answerd no for both question, my best advise is stay where you are. 17.3.2 is still a new version.

17.8.X is a single-release train.  

Best avoid single-release train unless you want to "help Cisco find bugs". 

Go with multi-release trains like 17.3.X, 17.6.X and soon-to-be-released 17.9.X.

Ok. Thanks. I will wait for 17.9.x release.
