Upgrading from 24.10 to 25.12

Installing and Using OpenWrt

I am considering to upgrade my three openwrt devices[1] (configured as dumb APs) from 24.10. to 25.12.

Is attended upgrade tool the right way to perform an upgrade? Can I retain my configuration as-is or is a fresh setup required

Attended sysupgrade does allow you to retain your configurations, and it can indeed be used to upgrade from 24.10 to 25.12 afaik. However, backup is still recommended in case something goes wrong.

EDIT: Just saw your other post. As long as you're not modifying the list of packages to be installed, attended sysupgrade should work. Otherwise, you'll need to request a build with the updated list of packages and flash the sysupgrade image from the build instead.
