I would say you really, really need to take your 450 stuff to at least 13.2.
I didn't go beyond that because of the alignment tone screwup. Which I
think is fixed in 13.4, so I will start cautiously going there. But while I
don't remember the exact issues or sequence of events, I know 13.2 fixed
some serious performance/stability issues we were having. George probably
remembers better than I do.

Doing my network tonight. Had been planning for 13.2.1. Just saw this on
13.4? Most of my network is on 12.1. Do I need to go to an interim release
or can I safely jump to 13.2.1 (or even 13.4).
Not sure I am willing to risk 13.4 tonight. Maybe wait a month.

13.4 is released. Other than the P8 thing Bill mentioned (and I confirmed on
the bench), haven't seen any issues yet. I have a very small number of APs
and SMs update so far though.

We did another couple groups of updates to 13.4 last night. On one sector
we had a couple of very low volume users on P8 FSK. Both of them bricked.
Well, not exactly bricked. We should have updated them to newer hardware a
long time ago, and since they were not heavy users, it really was not a
priority item.
So we swapped them out today, and brought them back to the shop. Turns out
you could bring them back to life if you default them. Cool I thought.
However, as soon as you apply a "real" configuration, they revert to brick
mode. No ethernet, no life. You can re-reset them and bring them back. So
I defaulted one, and downgraded to 13.1.3, and all is well, or as well as
a P8 can be.
Not real valuable, but if you have some old P8 FSK still running anywhere,
I do not recommend you try 13.4 on them.
