The Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switch must be running the Cisco NX-OS operating system NOTE: EPLD version is backword compatible.

NOTE: Do not perform an EPLD upgrade during an ISSU system upgrade. The system ISSU upgrade is a nondisruptive upgrade. Execute this operation only at a programmed maintenance time. NOTE: The EPLD upgrade operation is a disruptive operation. If such a disruption is not acceptable, then consider postponing the upgrade until a better time. When new EPLD images are available, the upgrades are always recommended if your network environment allows for a maintenance period in which some level of traffic disruption is acceptable. When Cisco makes an EPLD image upgrade available, these release notes announce their availability, and you can download the EPLD images from.

The EPLD image upgrades are independent from the Cisco In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) process, which upgrades the system image with no impact on the network environment. These EPLD image updates are not mandatory unless otherwise specified. Typically, these images are the same as provided in earlier releases but occasionally some of these images are updated. The system performs EPLD upgrades on one module at a time, so at any one time the upgrade disrupts only the traffic going through one module.Д¬isco provides the latest EPLD images with each release. NOTE: EPLD image upgrades for a line card disrupt the traffic going through the module because the module must power down briefly during the upgrade. The advantage of having EPLDs for some module functions is that when you need to upgrade those functions, you just upgrade their software images instead of replacing their hardware. In this document, the term EPLD is used for FPGA and CPLDs. PLDs include electronic programmable logic devices (EPLDs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs), but they do not include ASICs. Cisco provides electronic programmable logic device (EPLD) image upgrades to enhance hardware functionality or to resolve known issues.

The Cisco Nexus 9000 Series NX-OS mode switches contain several programmable logical devices (PLDs) that provide hardware functionalities in all modules. в– Determining Whether to Upgrade EPLD Images в– Cisco Secure Boot Hardware Tampering Vulnerability - Remediation Steps
