Subject: [UPDATE 1] Teo En Ming's Notes on Upgrading Firmware on HPE MSR954 Router and Enabling Web Interface - Version 1


Author: Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming

Country: Singapore

Date of Action: 11 Apr 2024 Thursday

Time: 8.30 PM to 11.00 PM


Step 1: Configuring IP address on router port GE1 to prepare for TFTP operation

===============================================================================


Startup configuration file does not exist.

Performing automatic configuration... Press CTRL_D to break.


Automatic configuration attempt: 1.

Not ready for automatic configuration: no interface available.

Waiting for the next...


Automatic configuration attempt: 2.

Interface used: Vlan-interface1.

Enable DHCP client on Vlan-interface1.

Vlan-interface1 failed to obtain IP address.

Waiting for the next...

Automatic configuration is aborted.

Line con0 is available.



Press ENTER to get started.


<HPE>system-view


[HPE]interface Vlan-interface 1


[HPE-Vlan-interface1]ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0


[HPE-Vlan-interface1]end


<HPE>show ip int br

*down: administratively down

(s): spoofing  (l): loopback

Interface                Physical Protocol IP Address      Description

GE0/0                    down     down     --              --

GE0/5                    down     down     --              --

Vlan1                    up       up       192.168.1.1     --


Step 2: Download and install Open TFTP Server and Configure Management Workstation

=====================================================================================


Download Open TFTP Server from https://sourceforge.net/projects/tftp-server/


Install Open TFTP Server Installer.


Configure IP address of management workstation as 192.168.1.2/24


Copy LATEST firmware image file MSR954-CMW710-R6728P27.ipe to C:\OpenTFTPServer


Double click RunStandAloneMT.bat


Turn off GlassWire firewall.


Turn off Windows Defender firewall.


Step 3: TFTP Operation for the firmware

============================================


<HPE>tftp 192.168.1.2 get MSR954-CMW710-R6728P27.ipe


The following attempt at installing the latest firmware failed because of insufficient space on the flash memory.


<HPE>boot-loader file flash:/MSR954-CMW710-R6728P27.ipe main

Verifying the file flash:/MSR954-CMW710-R6728P27.ipe on the device.......Done.

HPE MSR954 images in IPE:

  msr954-cmw710-boot-r6728p27.bin

  msr954-cmw710-data-r6728p27.bin

This command will set the main startup software images. Continue? [Y/N]:y

Add images to the device.

No sufficient storage space on the device.


Step 4: Delete unnecessary files on the flash memory to free up space

Rebooting the HPE MSR954 router.


<HPE>reboot

Start to check configuration with next startup configuration file, please wait.........DONE!

Current configuration may be lost after the reboot, save current configuration? [Y/N]:n

This command will reboot the device. Continue? [Y/N]:y

Now rebooting, please wait...

%Jan  1 01:00:07:296 2011 HPE DEV/5/SYSTEM_REBOOT: System is rebooting now.


Step 6: Enabling Web Interface on the HPE MSR954 Router

========================================================


Startup configuration file doesn't exist or is invalid.

Performing automatic configuration... Press CTRL_C or CTRL_D to break.


Automatic configuration attempt: 1.

Not ready for automatic configuration: no interface available.

Waiting for the next...


Automatic configuration attempt: 2.

Interface used: Vlan-interface1.

Enable DHCP client on Vlan-interface1.

Vlan-interface1 failed to obtain IP address.

Waiting for the next...

Automatic configuration is aborted.




<HPE>system-view

[HPE]interface Vlan-interface 1

[HPE-Vlan-interface1]ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0


[HPE]ip https enable


You can now browse the web interface using https://192.168.1.1/


Google Chrome doesn't display the web interface properly. You need to use Microsoft Edge.


But I don't know the default username and password, need to check it out later.


Step 7: Remember to save the router configuration before shutting down

========================================================================


[HPE]save

The current configuration will be written to the device. Are you sure? [Y/N]:y

Please input the file name(*.cfg)[flash:/startup.cfg]

(To leave the existing filename unchanged, press the enter key):

flash:/startup.cfg exists, overwrite? [Y/N]:y

Validating file. Please wait...

Configuration is saved to device successfully.
