yes that is fine. But generaly when you power up a factory defaulted 9004 gateway, with Internet connectovoty, it will reach out to Aruba Activate and it should automatically be upgraded to a level of firmware to be recognised by Aruba Central ansd then you can take it from there.

If my post was useful accept solution and/or give kudos.

Hi All,
Is it possible to perform an offline upgrade of a 9004 gateway running SD-Branch firmware that is currently factory default.
Cheers
