Firmware Update Profile

Overview

The Firmware Update Profile in Motadata AIOps enables integration with Aruba Central to fetch firmware information for registered Aruba devices such as Access Points (APs), Switches, and Controllers. Once configured, the system authenticates using OAuth2, collects current firmware from devices, retrieves the latest supported firmware from Aruba Central, and compares both versions to surface upgrade visibility in the console.

Go to Menu, select Settings . Navigate to Network Config Settings and select Firmware Update Profile.

This routes you to the Firmware Upgrade Profile landing screen. It displays the following details:
