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.

Hi Bill

Is 13.4 GA?  Any issues other than FSK?

Thanks

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.
