# Update logical interconnect firmware

After an enclosure is imported and a logical interconnect is defined, you might need to update the logical interconnect firmware. When the logical interconnect firmware update is applied, all physical interconnects within the logical interconnect are updated. During the update, the logical interconnect is offline and the firmware is uploaded and installed.

If you prefer, you can upload firmware to the logical interconnect without installing it, so the firmware is ready to be installed later. Uploading the firmware without installing it does not disrupt the logical interconnect operation.

### Prerequisites

- Minimum required session ID privileges: Infrastructure administrator or Network administrator

- A firmware bundle, also known as Service Pack for ProLiant (SPP), uploaded to the appliance

Updating logical interconnect firmware using REST APIs
Select the firmware URI to apply. `GET /rest/firmware-drivers` Select the logical interconnect URI. `GET /rest/logical-interconnects` Update the logical interconnect firmware. This step uploads and installs the firmware. `PUT /rest/logical-interconnects/`{id}`/firmware`

| NOTE: To view attributes and values to use for updating (upload and install), uploading, or installing logical interconnect firmware, see /rest/logical-interconnects/`{id}`/firmware.
