6.0.199.4 has been pulled from CCO but the release notes from 6.0.199.0 are back up as ‘new’.

Release notes can be found at:

This of course is the rev that we expect fixes that nasty L2 roam issue. Standard code qualification caveats strongly recommended. đ

Why do you configure a controller that way?
August 24, 2010 Leave a comment
So, I was digging on the WLC Config Analyzer (a great tool by itself!) at:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-1373
And I stumbled across the list of checks that it does and (more importantly) how it determines that itâs values are âpreferredâ. If you goto:
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-1176
And scroll down youâll see the list of the Config Analyzer errors and why it thinks those errors are pertinent (including links to supporting documentation!). If you ever wanted a good solid list of supporting documentation for configuration options, this is the best Iâve seen!
Cisco WLC captured web auth character limitations
August 23, 2010 Leave a comment
Nice to know:
Step 5 If you want the user to be directed to a particular URL (such as the URL for your company) after login,
enter the desired URL (such as http://www.AcompanyBC.com) in the Redirect URL After Login field. You
can enter up to 254 characters.
Note The controller supports web authentication redirects only to HTTP (HTTP over TCP) servers. It
does not support web authentication redirects to HTTPS (HTTP over SSL) servers.
Step 6 If you want to create your own headline on the login page, enter the desired text in the Headline field.
You can enter up to 127 characters. The default headline is âWelcome to the Cisco wireless network.â
Step 7 If you want to create your own message on the login page, enter the desired text in the Message field.
You can enter up to 2047 characters. The default message is âCisco is pleased to provide the Wireless
LAN infrastructure for your network. Please login and put your air space to work.â
Of course you can use a web-auth bundle to overcome this limitation but you should keep it in mind if youâre using the built in captured web portal.
AeroScout Exciter firmware notice

This just in from Aeroscout:
EX2000 Exciter Bulletin – Firmware Upgrade Required   Â
          Â
   Â
An EX2000 Exciter firmware upgrade is currently required to prevent compatibility issues of certain tags not responding to Exciters.
All customers who have EX2000 Exciters are required to upgrade the Exciter firmware to DSP223. In addition, if you have Cisco Context Aware Engine for Tags (CLE), you are required to upgrade the CLE to version 4.2.3.5 or above.
Please refer to article #2178 on http://support.aeroscout.com for complete details. You can also reply to this email or call us at U.S. +1-877-AERO-555 (or +1-650-292-4953), EMEA & APAC +49-302-5555-094.
Determining the Exciter model can be done by one of the following methods:
a. The label on the back of the Exciter would say âEX2000â (not âEX2000Bâ)
b. Open AeroScout System Manager, right-click on the Exciter icon and select âGet Statusâ from the menu. For the EX2000, the HW version would be â2â.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact AeroScout Technical Support at: http://support.aeroscout.com, U.S. +1-877-AERO-555 (or +1-650-292-4953), EMEA & APAC +49-302-5555-094.
Cisco has pulled the release notes for WLC version 6.0.199.0

Coincidence? Could this be due to the Vocera bug or just an oversight by a webmaster? The code is still available for download and itâs still listed on the AssureWave site (hah!) – just no release notes…
