topic Upgrading WLC 4404 in Wireless https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/upgrading-wlc-4404/m-p/1930545#M7992 <P>I need to upgrade our Wireless Lan Controller to support new APs. I was able to get the new code due to a security advisory on the code we are running now. I am upgrading from 6.0.196.0 to 7.0.220.0 (MD). I have read in some of the technical docs that the WCS has to match the WLC. I cannot find any documentation as to what this entails on the WCS. I need some direction, please! </P><P></P><P>WCS version is 6.0.132.0 running on Windows. </P><P></P><P>Thank you!</P> Sun, 04 Jul 2021 04:45:51 GMT Kristen Sims 2021-07-04T04:45:51Z Upgrading WLC 4404 https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/upgrading-wlc-4404/m-p/1930545#M7992 <P>I need to upgrade our Wireless Lan Controller to support new APs.

What I'm looking for are the steps to upgrade and what it entails to do so. This system was inherited and we are just becoming familiar with the system.

Well when you download the WCS software from CCO, most likely the .exe, there is a release note for that WCS code that has all the steps to upgrading your WCS to the appropriate version. Just look for the release note prior to downloading the WCS .exe file.</P><P></P><P>Thanks,</P><P></P><P>Scott Fella</P><P></P><P>Sent from my iPhone</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 09 Mar 2012 16:12:05 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/upgrading-wlc-4404/m-p/1930551#M7998 Scott Fella 2012-03-09T16:12:05Z Re: Upgrading WLC 4404 https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/upgrading-wlc-4404/m-p/1930552#M7999 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P> I just found the software and the readme. <SPAN __jive_emoticon_name="blush" __jive_macro_name="emoticon" class="jive_macro jive_macro_emoticon" src="https://community.cisco.com/4.5.4/images/tiny_mce3/plugins/jiveemoticons/images/spacer.gif"></SPAN></P><P></P><P>Thank you! </P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 09 Mar 2012 16:12:33 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/upgrading-wlc-4404/m-p/1930552#M7999 Kristen Sims 2012-03-09T16:12:33Z
