Hi Danny We have had some issues with HA mode in the past running 7.4.110. ping to the gateway would routinely fail causing a failover, at one point both the primary and secondary failed at once causing an outage. At this point i disabled HA mode and waited for new software. When 7.6 came around

Unless Cisco has released their new WiSM based on the 5500-series?, then you'd be much better off using the new 5500 series 1U controllers as they are significantly better/faster than the old dual-4400-series based WISM. The 5500-series 1u appliance now supports 500APs, and unlike the 4400

As I was told, the WiSM is based on the same single controller hardware as the 5508, with no dual-controller setup like the older 4404-based unit. Other than saving on uplink ports from the 5508, I too don't see much advantage unless they are going into an existing 6500 (replacing old WiSMs).
