ap305c not supported by cloudiq version

[Leo_Bistmans1]

New out of the box ap305c version 10.4r3 not supported by CloudIq.  
ap305c not down gradable to a firmware that is supported by the Cloudiq version we run.

We downgraded the upgraded CloudIq, but had to roll back because new ppsk failed to upload.

Yes, that's right. I also have many 305Cs running in 10.3.3 and 10.3.4.

But in the release notes you can see how poorly the IQVA is handled by Extreme.

I could save 3 ap's without falling from a ladder:

It is just this 'Not allowed' that keeps CloudIq from pushing configuration.
So select complete batch of config commands in cloudiq and push / paste via ssh to the AP.  
After that partial config upload, because ppsk are all masked as  **** 
Et voila: Some happy wifi users.

Somehow those 3 ap305c now report 10.3r5 ... an image I cannot even download from ExtremeNetworks web site.

I should never have told Ed Meyercord to by Aerohive, my bad!

Hi Leo!

There is a new hardware generation with a new TPM Chip. This new hardware cannot run with a version older than 10.3r5.

IQE v10.3r5 is supported by IQVA v21.1.22.1 and later releases.

But you are right, i'm searching for a download too.
