WLC firmware upgrade

Hi all,

we are running code 7.6 in foreign wlc (8510) and 7.4 in anchor wlc!

Thinking of upgrading the foreign wlc to v8.0.140 should i upgrade the anchor to the same version? what is the best practice?

Thanks for any inputs.

regards

They don't need to be on the same code but if you can then I would recommend to keep on same version(but its not a must).

Here is a matrix that show the compatibility:
