1. Introduction

1 Introduction

This document provides step-by-step instructions on how to upgrade the following AudioCodes session border controllers (SBC) from Version 7.2 to Version 7.4: Mediant 9000/9030/9080 Mediant Server Edition (SE) Mediant Virtual Edition (VE) deployed in VMware, Hyper-V and KVM environments Mediant Cloud Edition (CE) deployed in VMware, Hyper-V and KVM environments

Both standalone and high-availability (HA) deployment modes are covered in this document.

Note: Upgrade instructions for Mediant VE/CE deployed in public clouds (Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud) are provided in their corresponding Mediant VE/CE Installation Manuals.

1.1

Since 7.2 and 7.4 software versions are based on different operating systems (CentOS 6 and CentOS Stream 8 / Rocky Linux 8, respectively), such a software upgrade cannot be performed through the regular Software Upgrade Wizard using the CMP file. Instead, use the procedures described in this document to upgrade the device.

Supported Versions

Only the following 7.2 software versions can be upgraded to a 7.4 version: 7.20A.260.* 7.20A.259.* 7.20A.258.* 7.20A.256.* 7.20A.204.549 7.20A.204.878
