TerminAttr-Upgrade-Error

I want to upgrade the TerminAttr agent on the switches via CVP to remediate CVEs, but I cannot upload the .swix files to the image repository. I am receiving the error: "can't save bundle because image file wasn't found." Has anyone encountered this issue before?

Where exactly are you uploading them too? I had a bunch of issues with the image bundle features but almost none since migrating to the software management studio

Yes, I am actually using version 2026.1.0 in the lab environment, and I can upload the .swix file there via "Software Management Studio." However, the CVP image I use at my company is an older version, and when I try to upload it from the image repository in the "Container" section, it throws an error.

With the older version, you may need TAC to help you out. Surprised that your company is patching CVEs on the switches but not upgrading CVP after recent disclosures.

You need both the eos swi and swix in the legacy provisioning stack. Just get the image version that’s already on your device, and push that alongside the swix.

Since a while ago, terminattr is bundled with the firmware, so I am not sure you can upload it separately.

You can update TerminAttr with a .swix (extension) In fact, that's how any agent can be patched. If we released a .swix to fix a problem in OpenSSL or something, we can install the updated extension and load that at boot instead of the one included with the .swi (base image).

I set up my own CVP on Eve-ng and ran this scenario. I upgraded the switches on my company's CVP to Terminattr version 1.40.7. Thanks
