AFAIK 8.6 will be the first to support the complete 802.11ax suite.
While 8.5
provides support for the 500-series and their WiFi6 components, they are
incomplete.
So we'll all eventually be there, for now they're concentrating on
getting 8.5 stable.

All I wish for is that one day they'll have a version that they think
is stable enough to call a conservative release and which supports the
AP515 (which they started selling more than a year ago.
They have an 8.6.0.3 out as well. Does anyone know the logic of who
should want to be using 8.6 code vs 8.5 code. I guess I didn't know
that logic for 8.4 code either. We switched to that when we bought
some AP515's, and then I switched from the 8.4 branch to the 8.5
branch when it seemed like the consensus on this list was that lots of
people were having trouble with 8.4 and were having better luck with 8.5

Antonio,
Thank you for feedback. I really hope this version is stable.
The 8.5 code has been quite challenging. Please let us know if
you experience any major issues.

We just upgraded to 8.5.0.7 this past Friday so far so good.
We also experienced two of our MDs crash and we had to take
one MD out of the cluster due to it being unstable. We had
been running 8.5.0.5 without issues, no new MD crashes. Aruba
stated the crash was due to a corrupt AMON packet. I
reintroduced the MD that was offline without issues and then
upgrade the cluster to 8.5.0.7.

At the University of Minnesota, we're running 8.5.0.5 in
production. We have 8.5.0.7 in our lab. No issues with
8.5.0.7 so far. Been running close to a week, but not a
lot of users on campus.....

Hi Everyone,
We are an Aruba wireless shop currently running
ArubaOS 8.5.0.1 on an Active/Standby MM pair with 4 MD
controllers. Ever since we upgraded to the 8.5 code
we've encountered several critical issues requiring
upgrades, and subsequent downgrades, between various
8.5.0.X versions. We have been on 8.5.0.1 for the
better part of the school year as it has been the most
stable for our environment. A couple weeks before the
COVID-19 crisis, 3 of our 4 MD controllers randomly
crashed. TAC is now recommending that we upgrade to
8.5.0.7, which was released last week.
Are there any universities on this list that
have recently upgraded to 8.5.0.7? If so, what has
been your experience?
I understand most campuses are only seeing a fraction
of the normal wireless traffic load as most students
are currently not on campus - so any feedback would be
greatly appreciated.
