10.41 feature discussion

[Ronald_Dvorak]

Let's discuss some of the new functions of v10.41.

I've upgraded yesterday but I already love the AP remote shell feature - thanks guys, now I don't need to search for the AP IP and open another window to ssh to the AP.
 

I've a question about the http AP image upgrade function - does this now solve the issue for AP software upgrades if the controller is behind a NAT device ?

It's work auto ....

After 30 min timer for “Requested Channel” expires,AP will return to the original DFS channel under the following conditions:

– There are “ZERO” clients

– If associated clients >0, change to original “Requested Channel” is not done and is retried on regular 5 min interval until no clients on the radio or unti radio is reset.

Yes but the ap has to be on 10.41 or greater to support it. So any future upgrades should be ok.

Well I got busy and put this upgrade on the back burner. I finally got around to doing it this evening, and I confirmed that the TFTP issue is indeed resolved. This was the first time I was able to perform up upgrade without having to preload the software to the AP's at my remote sites.That certainly speeds up my upgrade process. Thank you Extreme software engineers!!

** NOTE: I was already at 10.41 ** (don't try it if you are running anything older)

I am about to perform this upgrade myself, and I am a victim of the "TFTP behind NAT" issue. I am pleased to hear that this is resolved. Although, I will likely still pre-upgrade my AP's. I'm not sure that I have the courage to upgrade my system after hours in the hopes that all my remote sites (scattered all over the place) will be okay. Ron - please fall on that sword for me and let me know how it goes. 😉

I believe 9.21 when we fixed it, few years ago. I might be wrong. The time when we come up with Private Cloud initiative.
