Upgrade for the WLC code questions

We 6.0.132 (lastest) WCS and our controllers are on 4.2.130, we now to upgrade to deal with sometimes, but don't want to capwap yet.

Question 1: what is the last exit LWAPP code?

Question2:Whats the differences between 4.2.207 (support page for cisco said it's the latest version), but it has same releases with ie 6.0 how it works it is very confusing workout a way to upgrade to higher versions

See you soon

Hi Tyrone,

I'm not an expert on the management of versions, but here are some basic in response details

at your request

4.2.207 is the last version on the Train of 4.2 and is without doubt an excellent choice

If you are avoiding CAPWAP for now. You will see in the link below which

There are several 'simultaneous' for the WLC Trains (and most of the Cisco product). People

were not big fans of the first Trains 5.x (quite buggy) and was introduced to CAPWAP

in 5.2 and the attacker thus is why 4.2.207 seems to be a good choice for you

In the later version or 5.2 controller software version, Cisco lightweight access points use the IETF control and commissioning of Access Points (CAPWAP) standard protocol to communicate between the controller wireless and other points of light access on the network. Versions software controller before 5.2 use the Lightweight of Point access (LWAPP) Protocol to these communications.

CAPWAP, which is based on LWAPP, is a standard and interoperable protocol that allows a controller manage a collection of wireless access points. CAPWAP is implemented in version 5.2 software controller for these reasons:

*

To provide a path for upgrade of Cisco products that use LWAPP generation Cisco products that use CAPWAP
*

To manage RFID readers and similar devices
*

To allow controllers to interoperate with third party access points in the future

LWAPP compatible access points can discover and join a CAPWAP controller, and conversion to a controller of CAPWAP is transparent. For example, the process of discovery of controller and firmware download process when using CAPWAP are the same as when you are using LWAPP. The only exception is for layer 2 deployments, which are not supported by CAPWAP.

You can deploy CAPWAP and LWAPP controllers on the same network. The CAPWAP compatible software allows access points join to be a controller running CAPWAP-LWAPP. The only exception is the Access Point Cisco Aironet 1140 series, which takes in charge only CAPWAP and joined so only controllers that run CAPWAP. For example, 1130 series access point can reach a controller running CAPWAP or LWAPP considering that access of series 1140 point can join only a controller running CAPWAP.
