On 7.4.100.60, we can get most bonjour/mDNS traffic from wireless
sources to wireless clients.
On 7.4.110.0, very little seems to get through.
Nothing is reliable.
We can make airplay work from appletvs to ios devices but not phones on
7.4.100.60 but not on 7.4.110.0.
We can't get anything shared on a wire to pass through to wireless
clients on 7.4.110.0.
I agree entirely - it worked "pretty good" on 7.4.100.60 but not so well
on 110.0.
We are using an app called papercut to manage printing, we have it
installed on an osx server, it's role is to share queues that the apple
ios devices should see. We can't seem to make that work reliably,
either - but there I am beginning to suspect the papercut software isn't
quite doing things right because we can make handiprint shared queues
show through.
It's not been fun working with cisco on this one...
Aside from the mDNS, 7.4.110.0 seems fine...

Hi Rick,
What mdns issues are you seeing, and which version do you see it on?
Has TAC been able to help?
mdns worked pretty good on 7.4.100.6 (engineering build) for us and we
went to 7.4.110.0 and immediately added a new WLAN. Not sure if it
was the new code or adding the WLAN, but on the new WLAN mdns is
squirrely. Some AppleTVs don't work at all if you're on the new WLAN,
and others do. But get on the old WLAN and it works fine. The
settings on the new and old WLANs are identical. It's baffling.
Anyone else see issues like this on 7.4?

Here we have six controllers on 7.4.110.0 and one on 7.4.100.60. We're
having a hell of a time with mDNS that explains the one controller on
difference code. Otherwise, upgrades into 7.4 were smooth as butter...
Make sure you upgrade Prime and your MSEs, too... OK, one exception - I did
need to remove and readd the MSE to Prime to get it working again after the
upgrade to 7.4... but that was easy.

+1. We’re also on 7.2.111.3 and wondering if it’s time to upgrade. Is
there a nice, stable new release for the 5508? I’m still gun shy from the
4400 days, when an upgrade often meant lost weekends and tearing out of
hair.

7.2.111.3 is what we are on, and have stayed there because it has been
stable for us. Just wondering if we should jump to 7.4.110.0 or some other
code…

I thought this was a bug when Win 8 first came out and fixed in code
7.2.111.3, sometime around October 2012.

We are curious what Cisco WLAN controller code you are running (5508
controllers?)
With the number of Windows 8 systems that are coming in the door from
students, we are fairly certain that we are hitting this bug, which we have
been resolving with client drivers….
CSCua29504 - 802.11w-capable client fails pairwise key handshake with AES.
https://tools.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCua29504/?referring_site=ss
Symptom:
An 802.11w-capable client, such as a PC running Windows 8, cannot connect to
an SSID using WPA or WPA2 key management with AES encryption. The AP will
send the M1 pairwise key message, but the PC will never respond with M2.
With "debug client" in effect, a message similar to the following will be
seen:
*dot1xMsgTask: Jun 12 20:23:37.471: 00:11:22:33:44:55 Retransmit failure for
EAPOL-Key M1 to mobile 00:11:22:33:44:55, retransmit count 5, mscb deauth
count 0
Conditions:
Client is 802.11w-capable, wireless infrastructure is CUWN, SSID using
WPA2/AES or WPA/AES. This bug affects CUWN 5.2.178.0 and above, but not CUWN
4.2 or earlier, nor does it affect autonomous IOS APs.
Workaround:
Use WPA/TKIP or WPA2/TKIP instead. Note that this will limit the client to
802.11g/802.11a data rates.
Another workaround is to use a Windows 7, rather than Windows 8 driver, for
the adapter.
Thanks,
Erik
