I performed an IOS-XE upgrade from 17.5.1 to 17.6.3. Note to download the correct C8500 software code. There's C8500 with and without the "L". You can't also downgrade the ROMMON firmware. The current firmware version 17.4(1r) is compatible with 17.6.3.

You can use the C8500L without registering in Smart License server (CSSM) since the Smart licenses are perpetual from factory. Just configure the license boot level network-advantage addon dna-advantage comand and issue a write memory

I tried to transfer the new IOS-XE using the USB slot (beside the console port) but it wasn't detected and it due to a USB 2.0 bug. So I performed a TFTP file transfer instead.
