Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Deploying Cisco 9120's with existing APs
I was told to stay away from 8.9 since it is going to be a short lived release.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Deploying Cisco 9120's with existing APs
Just entertaining the idea right now from the suggestion of my SE. I have 8540’s and looking to upgrade our dorms rooms from 702W’s and 3602’s to 1815’s and 3802’s but they wanted me to think about the 91XX series. I believe I’m done thinking!!

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Deploying Cisco 9120's with existing APs
I am testing 8.10 right now using a 2800, 1815w, and a bunch of 2700s. I haven’t seen any issues with any of those APs as of yet. So far everything has been running smooth with zero complaints. The only issue is a cosmetic bug on the 1815w (chatter: simple_action packet too short (expected 0x300, payload 18)) that has been confirmed with TAC. We have our first batch of 9115s, 9120s and 9130s on the way, so the upgrade is coming sooner rather than later for us as well.

Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Deploying Cisco 9120's with existing APs
What code / controllers will you be using? We looked at this as an option but with the 8540 and 8.9? code we found that most of the 802.11ax functions wont work. If you are considering this you may want to reach out to your SE for specifics of what works and what doesnt. I've never liked the idea of mixing models of aps in areas but have lucked out and not had to do it so not sure of all the cons.
