Firmware Compatibility

[golan.jovani]

Hello,

I have a Cisco WLC 2500 series with firmware 7.4.121.0,and  AP model AIR-LAP1131AG-E-K9   connected to it .

i want to add one new AP and it's model is AIR-CAP3702I-E-K9 .

I would like to know which firmware version i need to upgrade my WLC so all AP's will be working.

Thanks

Hello, golvan.jovani.

You need to have at least 7.6.X to support the new Aironet 3702i APs. Check this software compatibility matrix for reference:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/compatibility/matrix/compatibility-matrix.html

This should also support 1130 AP models. Are you using other other Cisco AP models?

Let me know if you have additional concerns or e-mail (adawa@cisco.com) me directly. Kind regards.

7.6.130.0 is the one you should go for from stability perspective. 

Also make sure your FUS upgraded to 1.9.0.0 as well. This is required 30-40min downtime to your wireless & do it via CLI.
