- It's possible that the current image on the AP is too old for an automatic upgrade by the controller; try
to install the needed image manually on the AP according to the AP model :
an example can be seen in https://blog.it-playground.eu/lightweight-ap-manual-firmware-upgrade/
Of course you will need to change the image name according to the AP name and capwap image for 8.10.196.0
