RF Tuning/General improvement across APs under Mobility Express/WLC

[pdenableetoavit19698]

Hi All,

I have just been able thanks to your help as well to add a new AP to a set of AP under ME.

As a general recommendation, I would like your feedback on whether especially after adding a new AP is recommended to do a RF tuning or other config checks/channels uses etc?

Also software wise we are using 8.10.162.0 - the 8.10.183 I understand is available, do you suggest to do an update to the latest one for new features/functionality, or since it is working now better leave it as it is?

Thanks for feedback!

          The ME controller will automate this process with TPC and DCA algorithms (Transmit Power Control and Dynamic Channel Assignment) , which run at regular intervals,

  Using latest advisory is best : https://software.cisco.com/download/home/286288446/type/286289839/release/8.10.151.0 also because of latest bugfixes and improvements ,

I have to disagree with @marce1000 on the software version recommended.  The gold * releases on the software download site are not up to date and in some cases may be recommending software with serious defects.  Rather refer to the TAC recommended releases as per the link below.  TAC updates this regularly based on the latest information and their own experience with what is impacting customers.
