WCS and Controller upgrade questions

Patrick McHenry

Hi,

with the WCS should I install both the EXE file and the BIN fil or just the BIN file?

Also, for upgrading the Controllers where can I find the ER file. I have downloaded the 4.2.209.0 image but, can't find the 4.2.205.0 ER.aes. Does anyone know where this is?

where on the controller can I tell if I already have the ER file?

Thanks, Pat.

Surendra,

Thanks for the info. I'm upgrading 4402's. Will the file on the link you posted be fine?

Also, How did you get to that file. Your link works fine I just want to know for future.To get the software image I goto wireless, Wireless LAN Controllers, standalone Controllers, Cisco 4400 Series Wireless LAN Controllers, 4402, Software on Chassis hten Wireless LAN Cotroller software, but don't see the ER file.

Thanks, Pat.

Hi Patrick,

The link which i posted is for 4404.. for 4402 here is the link..

http://www.cisco.com/cisco/software/release.html?mdfid=279911193&flowid=7586&softwareid=280926587&release=4.2.112.0%20BOOT&rellifecycle=&relind=AVAILABLE&reltype=all

The latest ER that we hav for 4402 is 4.2.112..

Q1>> To get the software image I goto wireless, Wireless LAN Controllers,  standalone Controllers, Cisco 4400 Series Wireless LAN Controllers,  4402, Software on Chassis hten Wireless LAN Cotroller software, but  don't see the ER file.

ANS - Yes you are right.. the above is the procedure to download the image.. "ER is nothing but the BOOT IMAGE, if you click on BOOT then the image will pop up as ER, the non BOOT will be in .aes format or something..

lemme know if this answered your question..
