arkey22 · ‎01-18-2020

I'm using AIR-WLC4402-12-K9 and its Product Version is 7.0.252.0. I would like to install more higher version of system but I'm not sure it's okay to use 8.X.

What version of product AIR-WLC4402-12-K9 can use? Could you tell me about the latest version of AIR-WLC4402-12-K9's software, please.

That WLC is VERY old!

You can easily see that 4400 is not supported on 8.x code: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/compatibility/matrix/compatibility-matrix.html#pgfId-459971

Last support = 7.x
