Thanks for your valuable support

In this case you might want to consider placing them all (including the controller) on the latest code. You can find it on our support portal.

as previously mentioned, 3cdaemon is a good tool to use.
  1. Install on your computer
  2. If using tftp, disable all firewalls on said computer
  3. Place the .img (not lean) into the root directory of the tftp server
A: The AP image that comes on the controller is the lean version, meaning no GUI so if this is OK with you, proceed with the controller upgrade. It should automatically upgrade the APs.

B: If you need GUI access to the AP follow these steps:

  • Prevent APs from automatically upgrading since the AP image on VX is LEAN. Instructions in the recommended upgrade doc
>en
#self
#no device-upgrade auto
#com wr
  • Upgrade the controller. Instruction previously provided.
  • load the AP image - downloaded earlier - into controller. Instruction previously provided.
  • Upgrade the APs by rf-domain. Instructions in recommended upgrade doc
#device-upgrade rf-domain ap7502
  • If you would like new APs added later on to automatically upgrade, remove the no device-upgrade auto command
#self
#device-upgrade auto
#com wrIf you still require assistance, please contact GTAC.
