Hello Guys,

I am planning to upgrade WLC from 7.2.103.0 to 7.2.110.0 due to some bug, but I wanted to know if it is compatible with WCS - 7.0.240.0 and NAC Guest server version 2.1.0, I am made some search but I couldn't get to proper conclusion. Need some help urgently.

Regards

Krishna

Yes it does.  My WCS is running 7.0.230.0 but I'm managing a pair of WiSM-2 running 7.4.100.0.

7.0.98.0 or later 7.0 releases You can upgrade directly to 7.2.110.0

Hope this will help.

Hi Abhishek,

Thanks for the inputs,

How ever I am not concerned about the WLC upgrade but the 7.2.110.0 version's compatibility with WCS - 7.0.240.0 and

NAC Guest server version 2.1.0

Regards

Krishna

The NGS is fine with any code as that is just a radius server. Here is the compatibility matrix for the other stuff

Ok, I believe u, but this is what cisco said about WCS and WI-Fi compatibility in this matrix:

but this is what cisco said about WCS and WI-Fi compatibility in this matrix

LOL.  I know.  It's a bug, apparently.

Hello Guys,

Completed the Upgrade everything seems fine, thanks for the valuable inputs

Dear Udupi Krishna T

Can you tell me which software version of your current WLC & WCS

I encount the same WLC & WCS compatible issue

I need to upgrade WLC to 7.2 above for support 2600 series AP,But I don't have money to upgrade WCS to NCS/PI

Vincent,

My WCS is 7.0.230.0 but I have WiSM-2 running 7.5.110.0.  It works.

Dear Leo:

Thanks for your reply,It's seen WCS unofficially support WLC 7.2 or above

Yes, Vincent.

But take note that there are some advanced features WCS will not be able to do because of the higher version of the WLC.  If you just need to do monitoring or doing reports, then this will work.

If you want to start doing like AVG, WCS won't be able to understand.
