We are upgrading our AOS to the latest patch tonight. We have faced a lot of
bugs with AOS up until now. We were one of the first universities to deploy AOS
8.0.0.0, being that we wanted to build our new Aruba infrastructure from the
ground up with the benefits of 8, which was brand new when we started. We are
excited about the bug fixes reported in the PDF.

FYI : AOS 8.2.1.0 has just been released and contains 35 pages of fixes :-)
Seems like a miracle my test with 8.2.0.2 in the Study Center has been nearly
flawless up until now :-O

Hi Chad,
Helpful observations. We’re looking at an upgrade without MM for our small
Campus. 280 WAPs that will grow to ~400 using a high density design using 7220
& 7210. Still investigating the cost/benefit for MM or non-MM upgrade.
We’ll need more Q & A with HPE and our local vendor. Can’t make Atmosphere
due to scheduling conflicts.

rather than the web GUI to make configuration changes.
