Verifyīefore pre-downloading a secondary image, let us check the content of the flash memory of a AIR-AP2602I-Z-K9.Īs you can see, there are two images that exist on the AP. There are no specific configuration requirements for this setup as long as the AP is able to register to the WLC. This is a common scenario faced by technicians who maintain the wireless network for both internal and external customers.

This document describes a scenario where you want to validate whether a new release of Wireless LAN Controllor (WLC) code addresses a lingering WiFi issue but then it turns out it doesn’t so you have to rollback to the previous release whilst minimizing the service outage time only to find that the Access Point (AP) is re-downloading the image from the WLC leading to a prolonged unplanned service outage time. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions: Prerequisites RequirementsĬisco recommends that you have knowledge of basic understanding of CAPWAP. This document describes the pre-image download process on an Acess Point (AP) and steps to consider in avoiding extended outage time.
