Clarification on S5296F-ON - show system output

Igano,

To answer your questions:

1. ONIE version is showing the version for the ONIE Install Enviroment Bootloader

2. Software version is referring to the Version of OS10 you're using

3. You can do a firmware update without an OS update. It was the older switches where they were linked.

Let me know if this helps, or if you have any other questions I could help with.

Thank you Chris.

I forgot to ask.

BIOS : 3.40.0.9-9 is my firmware version, correct? 

So what is the firmware version I’ve got on the switch? 

It is a boot process of sorts, but I haven't seen an update for it before.

Hello if you want to download the file Software Version : 10.5.3.6

you will need to log in with your own account.

Is software version = firmware version?

No software version and firmware version are different. Software version refers to operating system which is 10.5.3.6 and runs on the switch while firmware version is the software that controls the hardware components. Such as BIOS, ONIE, FPGA, BMC, CPLD versions. But you can see that it is sometimes used in the same sense depending on the context among the people.

Thank you Erman.

Updating the firmware on S5296F switch means updating (BIOS, ONIE, FPGA, BMC, CPLD). All of them. 

yes, at least that's how I understand it most of the time have a good one!
