Nothing at like that here. We had some growing pains back in the Cisco 5.0.x days, but have otherwise been OK since… small little bugs here and there, but nothing I wouldn’t expect from such complex code i.e. The campus here with Aruba runs into the same little stuff all the time.
Perhaps you’ve carried a lot of old configuration crud forward over the years that the various upgrades didn’t clean up? Have you ever used the Cisco WLC config analyzer? It’s really helpful in finding odd crud and/or offering suggestions to problems you may not even be aware you’re having.

Not so much looking for a solution here, but wondering if anyone else has seen similar. Having been on the Cisco thin thrill ride for almost a decade now, I’ve always been of the mind that gremlins like to make odd little config changes over time in the WLCs. Lately I’ve found: * APs renaming themselves * Clean Air getting wholesale disabled on a controller * APs that way back when were config’d with static IP addresses, but that have been using DHCP for years, going back to showing static IPs configs * APs taking themselves out of a given AP group to default The odd thing is lack of pattern. An AP or two from a controller or a building, but not others from the same general grouping. Basically configs that have been in place for months or years and several code versions just changing on a small percentage of APs with no seeming rhyme or reason. Very few hands are allowed anywhere near the important parts of the soup, and I know it’s not a matter of human error. Does anyone else experience anything like this? -Lee Lee Badman | Network Architect Information Technology Services 206 Machinery Hall 120 Smith Drive Syracuse, New York 13244 t 315.443.3003 f 315.443.4325 e [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>w its.syr.edu SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY syr.edu ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
