I 'm trying to upgrade WLC 4402 up from 5.1.151. After upgrade to 5.2 or higher https interface is inaccessible. If I use any other previous version, all is OK. Somewhere I found recomendation to open http before upgrade and use it at first. It works, but what to do next? To stay on http only?
View 1 RepliesI am working in an environment with 6 4402 all running 6.0.119.4 code and WCS 6.0.196.0. I keep getting an alert from WCS that the controllers cannot be reached "Controller '10.x.x.x' is unreachable. - Controller Name: 'Name'"
Now when I go to access the WLC through HTTPS I have no access at all but controller still responds to ICMP, HTTP, Telnet, SSH. I know I should have HTTP and Telnet disabled but since HTTPS keeps failing I would have no way to get into the controller. Is this a known issue in the 6.0.199.4 code? should I consider upgrading? The only fix I have found to work is to disable HTTPS reboot controller enable HTTPS and reboot again.
Our company has a customer with a Cisco 4402 WLC and a code version of 4.2.130.0 . The customer wants to upgrade the code to 7.0.230.0. Is there any flash size requirement when upgrading to 7.0.230.0? (upgrade train: 4.2.130.0 ----> 4.2.209.0 ----> 7.0.230.0), How can I find the flash size?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI ##have a customer with WLC 4402 in use, running software version 7.0.98.0, and supporting 11 APs at present. The customer wants to enlarge the WLAN, which involves increasing the number of APs. I #####have purchased a new WLC5508, and have installed it onto the network alongside the 4402. the 5508 is running software version 7.0.116.0. Because the wireless network is critical to the user, we want to move the APs over to the new controller while the network is up and running, then remove the 4402.
However, when we set the 5508 as the master controller, or tell one of the APs to use the 5508 as its primary controller, the AP connects to the new controller, downloads the new software version, attempts to load it but reports an error with the unzipped file size of the software and fails to boot. formatting the flash on the AP, then disconnecting the 5508 from the network and rebooting the AP allows it to connect to the 4402, it downloads the older software and boots as normal. A new AP, if connected to the 5508 in a test scenario (ie no 4402) connects, downloads and boots perfectly.
I #have the upgrade software to allow the 4402 to be upgraded to 7.0.116.0, but I am concerned that, if this is installed, the existing APs will then fail to boot from the 4402 or the 5508.all APs are 3502s, running IOS version 12.04(23c)JA when connected to the 4402 and 12.04(23c)JA2 on the 5508.
my client claimed that right after thry upgraded their WLC 4402 to version 7.0.220.0 from the version that came preinstalled (factory) the can no longer console into the device. They were able to console into the 4402 before the upgrade but now they can't. I'm thinking that maybe they upgraded straight to the new version and didn't verify to see whether they were allowed to upgrade directly to that version 7.0.220.0 or if they needed to upgrade to a intermediate version , the proceed to upgrade to the 7.0.220.0.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWLC-4402-25-K S/W - Primary and Secondary Controllers were running 4.2.130 to begin with. Customer upgraded remotely using NCS - Primary to 4.2.209 and then to 7.0.230 and all that went fine and is in Production.
Then customer upgraded Secondary also using NCS also from 4.2.130 to 4.2.209 in preparation to upgrade to 7.0.230 and he lost contact with the controller. Sent a technician to site to troubleshoot by connecting to Serial Port. Technician #ESCAPED out of the boot sequence and from the BOOT MENU tried to boot the Primary Image and it failed with CRC error on Flash. He then tried to boot the Backup image and had the same problem. He then tried to manually load 7.0.230 - ER (Boot Software) using TFTPD32.EXE and that went fine. He then tried to load 7.0.230 "aes" S/W - The big over 70 MB file and went through most of the file transfer but failed saying:
ERROR: Transfer Failed.
TFTPD32.EXE said something like "Data Packet too Short or some such thing". Sorry did not write down what TFTPD32.EXE said.
Then we thought "may be" a power cycle of the unit is required after the ER Boot Loader Image was loaded. When we did that the unit died. That is - no communication with the Serial Port. We don't think we have any choice other than RMA - Do we?
Customer says he did read and follow this link - especially Table 10-1. {URL}. He said he used NCS to do the Upgrade. I a not familiar with NCS.
I need to upgrade the software version of WLC to 7.0.235.3 with following primary and boot software:
AIR-WLC4400-K9-7-0-235-0-ER.aes
AIR-WLC4400-K9-7-0-235-0.aes
After the upgrade how the APs connected to WLC will download the IOS of new Software version. it is said that k9w8 - full lightweight IOS (this is what is bundled in the WLC .aes image, and is factory installed on "mesh" APs)
I want to be sure is this the IOS that the AP download after the Software upgrade??
I wanted to upgrade our three WLC 4402 from software version 5.0.148 to 6.0.202.0. The upgrade on the first controller was working. Unfortunately he lost all the local management users and it's MAC filters, but restoring this was not the problem. After upgrading the second controller.... the device does not boot anymore! The alarm led is RED and I don't know what to do. The only way to get connected to the controller is via the console port. There I can see a "parse error" but I don't know if that is the problem. Please look at the "log" attached. I'm not sure if the red alarm led was there before upgrading the controller software because the device is located to another place. I'm really concerned about upgrading the third controller because it's the most important wlc.

We have Cisco 4402 Wireless Lan Controller with Software Version 3.2.171.6 and we want to upgrade it to latest version.
What is the latest version to upgrade the WLC?
Also since WLC is running on very lower version is it possible to upgrade to the latest version directly or we have to move it step by step to upgrade this to latest version?
In need to upgrade the software on two WLC 4402 controller in a hospital. Both WLCs have the same config and one is primary (has all APs connected) and the other backup (no APs connected.) The APs are placed so there is still coverage if one goes down in an area. My question - is it possible to do a rolling upgrade to have no downtime for the wireless clients? My plan would be to upgrade the backup WLC then selectively move APs to it. If I swap the primary and secondary controllers in the high availability tab on each AP, do I need to do a reset (General - Hardware Reset) or will it automatically reboot and connect to the upgraded backup controller? When I'm done, I'd upgrade the primary controller and now call that backup. Does this make sense?

View 11 Replies View RelatedWe have recently upgraded the software on our two WLC 4404 from software release 4.0.xxx to 4.2.xxx to 6.1.199.4 and lastly to version 7.0.98.0.
We could access the WLC's GUI's using https when it was on version 4.0.xxx. When we did the upgrades from version 4.2.xxx to 6.1.199.4 we couldn't access the Admin page through https anymore but only through normal http. We enabled https through the GUI and through the CLI and we did do the re-generation certificate , without any success. We then upgraded to version 7.0.98.0 and we still have the same result , cannot access Admin GUI through https.
I use the Service port connected to the managementVLAN to manage the WLCs. When configuring HA with AP SSO, I lost HTTPS connectivity to the WLC, telnet still works fine.I researched the deployment guide and it states:
- When AP SSO is enabled, there is no SNMP/GUI access on the service port for both the WLCs in the HA setup.Why is remote access disabled using GUI when using HA, and how can I keep management of my WLC using HTTPS and an address in the ManagementVLAN.
I have a WLC526 running sw version 4.2.61.8 that I finally got around to installing in my shop for testing after sitting on the shelf for several years. Since it's now out of warranty and I'm no longer certified getting the latest sw version isn't possible so I'm stuck with the version it shipped with.
1, How do we change the web log in page from https to http? No guest wants to get confronted with a certificate error page so https doesn't make sense.
2, The virtual interface used for Web-Auth provides for a DNS Name but if I set a name it won't resolve and the log in fails. If I delete the name it uses the assigned IP instead and works fine. How do I get the DNS Name to work since it looks more professional?
3, When changes are made to the WLC I was initially just applying the change and then saving the config but it appears for some of these changes to take affect I have to reboot. It this correct or am I just missing something.
Again some of these issues are probably addressed in the subsequent sw releases but since my device sat in a box for 3+ years I missed out on the opportunity to upgrade and now TAC is telling me { (no contract || no warranty == no software) }, despite the fact that this device reached its EOL.
We have two cisco 1262 AP and a 4402 WLC, the AP cannot join the WLC. The AP gets the address from dchp
I cannot ping the AP address from the WLC, but i can ping the default gateway and other VLAN addresses.
I already read the info on the this link : [URL] Still our AP cannot join the WLC no matter what i have tried.
