Upgrade a new 2504 WLC

I've recently purchased a new WLC 2504 , the software version is 7.0.2, i need to upgrade it but i cant download the IOS from cisco .
is there any legal way to do the upgrade? I dont wana do it through the fileshre website.
Any ideas....

Hi,
the images can only be downloaded from Cisco official website.
you will have to open a ticket with the TAC and they will be able to publish the image for you.
Thank you

Port Configuration on new 2504 WLC

I've read some conflicting things on the new 2504 WLC's. Some things indicate all 4 ports are fully useable, while
others indicate perhaps only 1 or 2. I think I've read in product documentation that it support a max of two ap-manager interfaces. Does anyone know for sure if all 4 ports are useable? I'm thinking of the following configuration:
Port 1: management interface and first ap-manager interface
Port 2: second ap-manager interface
Port 3: first dynamic/client interface
Port 4: second dynamic/client interface
I'm planning on deploying my ap's in h-reap mode with a max of 25 ap's per 2504. Since I'm using h-reap, bandwidth shouldn't be much of an issue so I'm also considering trimming it down to using just two physical ports as follows so I can take up fewer gig switchports which are scarce at many of my locations:
Port 1: management interface and first ap-manager interface
Port 2: first and second dynamic/client interface
Opinions? I've always deployed 4400's and 5508's with LAG so I haven't had to think about this much until now.

Hi Evan,
For sure! There is a really good example on the configuration guide, and assciated caveats.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/7.4/configuration/guides/consolidated/b_cg74_CONSOLIDATED_chapter_0100011.html
Benefits for using LAG is increased bandwidth, and redundancy - especially if you have the two (or more in the case of a 5508 WLC) ports connected to different physical switches, eg a 3750 stack.
Best,
Evan

How to Upgrade (legacy setup) 5508 wlc in HA

How to Upgrade 5508 wlc in HA (both the WLC with permanant AP license only, i.e, without HA license).
As per
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/technotes/7-5/High_Availability_DG.pdf
Both the WLCs have a valid AP Count license
• The CLI should be used to configure one WLC as the Standby WLC (as mentioned in the
configuration section) provided it satisfies the requirement of minimum permanent license count.
This condition is only valid for the 5500 WLC, where a minimum of 50 AP Permanent licenses are
needed to be converted to Standby. There is no restriction for other WLCs such as the WiSM2, 7500,
and 8500.
• AP-count license information will be pushed from Active to Standby.
• In the event of a switchover, the new Active WLC will operate with the license count of the previous
Active WLC and will start the 90-day countdown.
• The WLC configured as Secondary will not use its own installed license, and only the inherited
license from the active will be utilized.
• After 90-days, it starts nagging messages. It will not disconnect connected APs.
• With the new WLC coming up, HA SKU at the time of paring will get the AP Count:
– If the new WLC has a higher AP count than the previous, the 90-day counter is reset.
– If the new WLC has a lower AP count than the previous, the 90-day counter is not reset.
– After switchover to a lower AP count, the WLC offset timer will continue and nagging messages
will be displayed after time expiry.
My query is:
How can we upgrade the WLC version in this scenatio (where both the WLC have only permanent
AP License and not the HA license), Is it the same as done with HA controller or some othe procedure?
Pls comment.

Thanks Freerk for the comments,
But my query is, What would be the procedure for image upgradation after configuring HA between both the controllers (Primary-Secondary).
Will it be same as with the Primary-HA controller, or do i've to upgrade them individually and
re-configure HA again.

Configuring 2504 WLC for LanSchool/AppleTV

Good Day to All,
Recently my small elementary schools have upgraded to Cisco Air-Cap2600 series AP's and a 2504 WLC. Very much a sweet step up from 10 year old Apple Airport Extremes.
My question is what would be the best pratice to enable Multicast via the GUI for the needs of those platforms and any other future P2P services?
Thanks in advance from a newbie,
GEP

What is the WLC software version running on your 2504 ?
If it is 7.4.x follow the below reference guide
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/technology/bonjour/Bonjour_Deployment.html
If it is 7.5.x following config guide should help

2504 WLC future LAG support?

We just bought a 2504 WLC with 15 AP licenses for our new eight 1141N AP installation. Some confusion about LAG support for these now confirmed by TAC that LAG NOT supported for the time being. Has anyone heard about whether this feature will be added to the 2504 in the future? Seems a waste of those four ports toherwise. Just wondering....

You can still utilize multiple links on the 2500 platform. If you create multiple interfaces with AP management enabled, you can load balance APs across the port(s).
Likewise, you can put your various wireless client vlans on different physical ports to avoid having ALL traffic on a specific port.

Local printers not working with 2504 WLC

                   I have a 2504 WLC with 3 1262 WAPs in lightweight mode.
     Clients connect using WPA2 PSK AES with no problem. Clients are Windows XP Home SP3. Test pages end up in print queue and eventually get a error printing status. Clients are not part of a domain and in a standalone workgroup - techstream.
Printer can be pinged from wireless client.
Another 1262N WAP in standalone mode connected to same lan from windows 7 sp1 clients have no problem printing to a local printer.
What does work on the Windows XP Home client is connecting to a network shared printer authenticating with domain admin id and password and it works. Reboot and the network shared printer can not connect multiple reasons are "access is denied" and message box says "only security tab will be displayed....."   Another Windows XP Home SP3 client on reboot can't open the network shared printer with message "Can't find printer"
The local printers do work on these pc's with an old colubris router that has an outside interface on our lan and internal network with clients getting dhcp address from colubris router of 192.168.3.XXX .
What is wrong with the wireless 2504 WLC?
Thanks
Broadcast forwarding was enabled.

Although a cisco tech support was helpful in making sure multicasting was enabled and a multicast server defined, the problem was at the CP2025DN printer. It had old network ip mask and gateway configured on the printer.
The new devices were part of the new network configuration (Mask and gateway had changed). I didn’t change that printer when I changed all the other printers at the facility because it was still active thru the old wireless network. I forgot to change the printer ip config when I brought the new wap on the new wireless network with the wlc 2504.
End result was the clients were part of a different subnet and gateway configuration then the printer and this disrupted the communication between clients and the printer. Once I corrected the mask and gateway on the printer to be the same as the dhcp scope of the wireless network, communication and printing worked.
Problem solved. User error

Oracle Upgrade vs New Install

I have a client who wants to 'merge' 2 separate instances into a single instance in 11.5.10. The 2 separate instances are at different application and database levels, but do have commonalities, such as the COA structure. Part of the single instance project requires that the current CoA structure be changed from the current model. My impression and experience has told me this is a new install with a data migration from the 2 instances. Would that be the consensus of this group as well? Would there be any benefit to upgrading the 'newer' instance, creating a new SOB with the new structure, and then migrating data from the 'older' instance into the 'newer'/upgraded instance, which then serves as the single instance. Part of the migrations however, would BOTH require data conversion and mapping from the old COA to the new COA...

Any specefic Reasons why Multi Org can not be used here

How-do-i-configure-guest-wifi-access-using-2504-wlc-fortigate-utm-l3-device

Dear All
I have a 2504 Wireless Controller with multiple radios attached. I currently have a "private" WLAN configured (taking ip from windows server based DHCP of Range 192.1681.0/24 ) and working, but I need to add a Guest/Public WLAN which should take the IP from Other DHCP Configured on Fortigate UTM of range 172.16.0.0/24.
We have one SG300 switch in the office and the rest are basic switches.
Our firewall/router is a Fortigate UTM 240D
Find the attached network diagram for the issue.
Is there a SIMPLE way to enabling guest access that doesn't require VLANS (or are VLANS easier than I'm making them)?
Thanks.

Are you talking Apple's Remote Desktop software, or Microsoft's?

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

I've upgraded to new version of itunes on windows 7 PC - no link to my library - HELP!!

Hi There
So, upgraded to new itunes - no link to my previous library though some recent itunes purchases there. Have tried draggin music file into Itunes - only connects first song on first album. tried dragging individual albums - again only first song and seems to be asking me to repurchase my entire collection (100's of thousands of songs - I don't think so!).
The general help form apple is not clear and if I have interpreted it correctly, doesn't work. I really, really need my music back - would rather loose my photo collection than my music collection. if you could help, it would be much appreciated!
Many thanks

Hello MermaidMonkey,
Here is an article about pointing iTunes to your library again.

Currently running macbook pro 2.4Ghz intel core i7 15'' Late 2011. Wanted to know if and how so (if so), 1. can i install a SSD? 2. can i upgrade (install new) usb 3 hardware to replace current USB2.0?

To installing a SSD, yes, it is possible. See this link to read more.
There are also quite a few YouTube videos on the process.
To the second, no, it's not possible to replace USB 2 with 3 without replacing the system.
