[limlayhin]

I have a Nexus switch 5548, current version is 5.2(1)N1(1).

What will be the best upgrade path from 5.2(1)N1(1) to 7.3(7)N1(1b)?

Hi,

If you want to upgrade from a release on Cisco NX-OS release 7.1 train or earlier, you must first upgrade to Cisco NX-OS release 7.1(4)N1(1) and then to 7.3(7)N1(1b). If you want to upgrade from a release on Cisco NX-OS release 7.2 train or earlier, you must first upgrade to Cisco NX-OS release 7.3(2)N1(1) and then to 7.3(7)N1(1b).
