5508 WLC upgrade

dclee — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 04:35:34 GMT

Looking to upgrade our 5508 WLC to the newest code AIR-CT5500-K9-7-2-103-0-FUS

We are currently running an older code 6.0.196.0

Are there any issues that I need to worry about with this upgrade ?

Do I need to upgrade the AP's at the same time ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dave

Is the WLC going to be used in RUSSIA? That's what this code is for. If not, use the "AIR-CT5500-K9-7-2-103-0.aes" file instead.

Do I need to upgrade the AP's at the same time ?

The WLC will do it for you.

Whoops. You're too fast. Updated my post, comrade.

Downloaded correct code...:) So is it a pretty simple upgrade ? I have 25 AP's currently. Do I need to worry about the AP's as well ?

No you don't. You upgrade the firmware of the WLC and the WLC will then push the appropriate code to the WAP in one go.

Updated the code all appears well except for one issue, which I will start another discussion for

Thanks
