RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Controller Code

[Jason Cook]

As a few others have mentioned, if you are running webauth get a recommended MR 
from TAC otherwise you’ll get crashes

This seems a somewhat reasonable page as well.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/7721/wireless-lan-alerts

We had 3 AP’s fail upon pre-download of the image(came from 7.5), so yes they 
died during pre-download not during the actual upgrade. 1 came back but 2 now 
need replacement. Seems the same as what Kitri mentioned but our attempts to 
recover didn’t work so well. We followed a different process though.

Had to reboot our 3602i AP’s  with 11ac modules a second time after upgrade 
from 120.0 to the MR 122.6  release as 11ac clients couldn’t get DHCP.

So if you ignore controller crashes, AP failures and extra AP reboots … it’s 
been smooth……..

There’s also a field upgrade image to go with the 7.6 code

Yes we’ll follow the amen to a good stable code. They promise a lot for code 8 
but I won’t hold my breathe yet.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Wireless Printing

[Craig Eyre]

We don't allow wireless printers but allow printing via wireless with a
product called PrinterOn. Seems to work well and have only deployed in
areas with high byod like a library and a few others. You just connect to a
webpage and then select the printer in your area.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Wireless Printing

[Vlade Ristevski]

What we did last year, was have them connect to our MultimediaDevices 
SSID which is "secured" by mac filtering and is set up for game consoles 
devices that can't do 802.1x. They would have to register the printer on 
our home grown device registration page.


A problem that crept up with this approach, is that if some students 
turned their printer off long enough it got a different IP address and 
their client software would try to print to the old IP. I was thinking 
about having our registration page give them a fixed address in DHCP but 
the problem only came up on one or two occasions so I didn't think it 
warranted the development time. The other option would be to email them 
the DDNS name after registration with instructions.


The other possible issue is students printing to each others printers by 
accident or as a prank.  We did not receive any helpdesk calls reporting 
this but I'm going to assume it happens.

?Agreed, unfortunately. This is really thorny territory. We provide USB cables 
and the backstory for why wireless printers aren't a good fit. This is one of 
the unfortunate aspects of running the dorms on centralized business-class 
Wi-Fi. It really isn't the same as your home environment, and estremely 
difficult to make so without plunging the whole thing into unmanageable chaos.

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Controller Code

[Lee H Badman]

“Finding good code for these controllers is tough. Sometimes it feels like you 
have to pick your poison with these things.”

Amen to that. Even more frustrating- what constitutes “good code” varies 
depending on whether you ask your SE, TAC, someone else at TAC, yet someone 
else still at TAC, or the community forums where the exalted Partners and VIPs 
get more information  on such matters than us lowly end users. Very often the 
partners’ opinions differ from TAC’s.

For the market leader, this is almost a decade now of  running insanity when it 
comes to wireless code.

[WIRELESS-LAN] Posture Checking policies on Macs

[Kelly Phillips]

Hello,

I just wanted to see what, if  any, posture policies anyone is enforcing on 
student Mac computers on their campus.  We have been using Cisco Clean Access 
and have not required the NAC agent be installed and therefore have not 
required any anti-virus software on these computers.  We are in the process of 
implementing Cisco ISE and in creating our posture policies I am looking for 
feedback on how other places are dealing with Mac computers.  Do you require 
the NAC agent to be installed on all Mac computers?  Do you require an 
anti-virus to be installed and up to date?  Or do you just exempt these devices 
and only enforce these requirements on Windows PC's?

Any feedback would greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Controller Code

[McClintic, Thomas]

Good Morning,

We have been running 7.6 for over 2 months in full production, 6 months in test 
and limited deployment. No client issues reported yet.

We did run into the issue with web auth crashing our anchor controller. Be sure 
to get the code .120.6 or later for the fix if you are running web auth.

I haven’t had issues with HA like in earlier releases. Running static addresses 
on the service ports, had issues with DHCP on them though.

We have been seeing some 2602’s have issues with the file system. It requires a 
file system check to resolve. I’m not sure if this is related to the inability 
to get the backup version put on. It’s not a game breaker for us and only rears 
its head on 1 out of about 200 APs.

If you are running Prime and MSE be sure you review those upgrade paths as 
well. Bookmark this page 
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/compatibility/matrix/compatibility-matrix.html.
 Also shows 1131’s are supported.

7.6 is more of a band aid to get us to ac(2700/3700) support, most of the 
highlights will be coming with 8.0 like RX-SOP, etc. Going from 7.3 to 7.6 you 
are going to have a lot of new nerd knobs, so enjoy!

really well – fortunately.  Other than the GLBP/Macintosh Maverick issue, we’re 
happy with it (running 1252’s, 1142’s, 3502’s and 3702’s).  You may need to 
check the 1131’s to see if they are supported on 7.6.120.0, though.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Cisco Controller Code

 

We need to upgrade our 5508 controller code to support the 2702i AP's(Currently 
at 7.3.101.0). We have a lot of 2600, 3500 series AP's and some legacy 1142 and 
1131's. We are thinking about moving to 7.6.120.0. Has anyone had experience 
with this version ? Any issues? recommendations?

 

 

Thanks,

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Sample RFP / RFQ ?

[Jerry Bucklaew]

Jason,

  Thanks for the sample RFP.  It was perfect timing and will help us 
create ours.


Thomas,

   The university at Buffalo is also looking to do an RFP for a 
complete WLAN upgrade.  We will also be including into the RFP the "RF 
Design", cabling and installation.  A complete solution if you will.  We 
will be happy to share or work together depending on timing.  We are 
hoping to get our RFP out Very soon and I am working  on creating it now.

Thomas,

Attached is an RFP that we ran late last Fall. Feel free to use or 
discard ideas as you please. The format is awful, but that is an 
artifact of our purchasing departments system.

myself in the unenviable position of choosing a new vendor.  Is there 
anyone who has been through this recently who wouldn’t mind sharing 
the RFP or RFQ they used for the process? I have not been through this 
with wireless for many years and wanted to make sure I didn’t miss 
anything.
