I have seen the APs jumping between WLCs running different code levels and
downloading different codes during upgrade as well. Then I came out this
upgrade procedure and it seems no more looping:
1. On WLCs management interface vlans, remove the ACL entries which permit APs
to join the WLCs.
Dennis,
After the security vulnerability notice (http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090727-wlc.shtml
) we looked at it, but our Cisco rep has advised us to move to
5.2.193.0 instead. We have 13 WiSMs and 6 4400's supporting 2800+
access points.

You would think there should be a near-hitless upgrade process. Could be as
simple as temporarily restricting APs from downgrading. And that doesn't even
have to be done the AP side, that could be done via a setting on the WLC.

Hi Dennis,
We have just completed upgrading to 6.0 . Will let you know how it goes. We
have 4 Wisms and 460 aps. We upgraded WCS to 6.0 and the interface is much
better then previous versions.

Hi,
We have problems with static assigned IP address APs, when they loose
connection to the network. Some access points will go back to requesting
dhcp leases, ignore their assigned static IP address. Only way to bring
them back is to power off/on, or give them a dhcp IP address and then
I've read some responses on how to handle guest access, but I'm being asked a
slightly different question by my campus. We are considering providing
free/open wireless access on campus. I can think of a myriad of issues,
but I need to find out if anyone else has done this and any comments
UBC upgraded our campus (39 controllers consisting of 4402's 4404's WiSM's and
5508's) on July 18th to 6.0.182.
-We had some AP's with Static IP's that needed attention.
-We also noticed that the wired ACL in 6.0x doesn't work - we noticed this even
during our 6.0 beta test.

Scott,
I think you answered your own question. We actually considered the idea
at some point, strictly because we wanted to make it as easy as possible
for everybody to connect to our wireless network. But in the end we
decided that the cons were just too many. You've mentioned a few
already.
We actually are going the other way. Our wireless has been 'open' since day
one, but due to all the issues mentioned and the changes in the legal landscape
(or possible changes) we are in the process of securing our wireless. We will
be requiring daily users to use our Safe Connect platform
