Protocol selected: FTP Trying address-->AF_INET IP: 192.168.126.115, flags : 2 Cannot download the requested firmware because the firmware doesn't support this platform. Please enter another firmware path. Cannot download on a switch with Interop turned on. Probable cause and recommended action On single CP, Interop fabric does not support Coordinated HotCode Load. Perform a firmwareDownload -o command. The operand bypasses the checking of Coordinated HotCode Load (HCL). On single CP systems in interop fabrics, the HCL protocol is used to ensure data traffic is not disrupted during firmware upgrades. This option will allow firmwaredownload to continue even if HCL is not supported in the fabric or the protocol fails. Using this option may cause traffic disruption for some switches in the fabric.

Firmware access timeout.
The server is inaccessible or firmware path is invalid. Please make sure the
server name or IP address, the user/password and the firmware path are valid. If
SCP is selected, SSH server must support password authentication. If USB device
was used for firmwaredownload, make sure it is plugged in and enabled on the
Active CP.
Symptom
Cannot download the requested firmware.
Probable cause and recommended action
The firmware you are trying to download on the switch is incompatible. Check the firmware version
against the switch type. If the firmware is incompatible, retrieve the correct firmware version and
try again.

Cannot download the requested firmware because the firmware doesn't support this
platform. Please enter another firmware path.
Symptom
Cannot download on a switch with Interop turned on.
Probable cause and recommended action
On single CP, Interop fabric does not support Coordinated HotCode Load.
Perform a
firmwareDownload -o
command. The operand bypasses the checking of Coordinated
HotCode Load (HCL). On single CP systems in interop fabrics, the HCL protocol is used to ensure
data traffic is not disrupted during firmware upgrades. This option will allow firmwaredownload to
continue even if HCL is not supported in the fabric or the protocol fails. Using this option may cause
traffic disruption for some switches in the fabric.
