Introduction

This document describes the features, issues, and limitations of Cisco NX-OS software Release 10.5(4)M for use on the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches.

Date

Description

October 21, 2025

Release 10.5(4)M became available.

Software Features

There are no new software features introduced in Cisco NX-OS Release 10.5(4)M.

Hardware Features

There are no new hardware features introduced in Cisco NX-OS Release 10.5(4)M.

Release Image

Note:      Starting from 10.5(3)F, Cisco NX-OS no longer provides a separate EPLD image. Instead, the EPLD image is bundled with all NX-OS images and so the image sizes are correspondingly larger.

In Cisco NX-OS Release 10.5(4)M, the following four 64-bit images are supported:

·       The 64-bit Cisco NX-OS image filename with “nxos64-cs” as the prefix (for example, nxos64-cs.10.5.4.M.bin) is supported on all Cisco Nexus 9000 series switches except Cisco Nexus 9500 series -R and -R2 modular switches, Cisco Nexus 9800 switches, and N9364E-SG2 switches.

·       The 64-bit Cisco NX-OS image filename with “nxos64-s1” as the prefix (for example, nxos64-s1.10.5.4.M.bin) is supported and mandatory on all Cisco Nexus 9800 and N9364E-SG2 switches.

·       The 64-bit Cisco NX-OS image filename with "nxos64-msll” as the prefix (for example, nxos64-msll.10.5.4.M.bin) is supported on Cisco Nexus 9500 Series -R and -R2 modular switches.

 

Note:      The 32-bit image is no longer supported.

[1] For N9K-C9348GC-FXP the PSU SPROM is not readable when the PSU is not connected. The model displays as "UNKNOWN" and status of the module displays as "shutdown."
[2] For specific fan speeds see the Overview section of the Hardware Installation Guide.
[3] This switch runs with +1 redundancy mode so that if one fan fails, the switch can sustain operation. But if a second fan fails, this switch is not designed to sustain operation. Hence before waiting for the major threshold temperature to be hit, the switch will power down due to entering the fan policy trigger command.
