Somehow this escaped me, and now I'm dealing with not getting wind of it earlier. It's no surprise that WiSMs are getting long in the tooth, but the part of the announcement that (I think) sucks is that we have a quantity of 3600 APs ready to get installed. These APs need 7.1 Code. WiSMs will not run 7.1 code. We have (6) 5508s, and 24 controllers on 12 WiSMs. So we have the unfortunate choices of either running a mixed code environment (yeah, that sounds fun) where 3600s may hit controllers that can't let them associate, shelving our 3600s until we get our 5508s in place and WiSMs retired at the pace we had planned on, or quickly rushing to get rid the WiSMs so we're not faced with either of the first two situations.
