From what we were told by Cisco - you will no longer have to remove the old and then install the new. All version from 4.2 on will be a single install and will remove the old for you. todd Todd Joyce Network Services Radford University - The Smart Choice [EMAIL PROTECTED] (540) 831-

Doug, Thanks for the posting. I thought that each WLC on a WiSM can download 10 APs at a time. In 4.1.185.0 code we typically see 9 APs being download at a time when doing a bulk AP upgrade to LWAPP. On our 1230 APs the download seems to take approx 1.5 to 2 minutes. It sounds like you are

We took a crack at this. What we found was that it is quite easy to do with Vista, but the variety of Vendor OEM wireless managers in use for XP and some nasty XP spyware frequently interfered with the tool. We are under the recent impression that the iD-Engines product has had a better success
