2. Copy the file to the USB/MMC storage that is currently in use.

...

1. Format USB/MMC partition as FAT32.
2. File with a previously created backup copy of the controller configuration must be placed on the USB/MMC media.
3. Connect the USB/MMC storage to the appropriate ESR WLC slot.

To check the current firmware version and the version of the secondary bootloader (U-boot) in the CLI of the main firmware, execute the 'show version' command: 

...

• Switch the power off and then switch it back on. The interval between switching off and on must be at least 20 seconds. Briefly press the function button F on the front panel of the controller.
• Execute the 'reload system' command in the CLI of the main firmware of the controller.

Firmware version 1.30.2 is cumulative (it contains updated versions of the primary and secondary loaders), so it will be enough to:

1. In 1.19.1, selective inclusion of vlan in SoftGRE tunnels is supported. service-vlan command is added in softgre-controller section, the specified vlans will be included in tunnels after upgradeupdate. In 1.19.0 all created vlans were included in tunnels. Need to add used vlans for Wi-Fi to the configuration.

   softgre-controller service-vlan add 3 exit

2. Configuration of telnet, ssh, web, snmp services on AP is supported, after update they will be disabled. They can be enabled in ap-profile.

   Информация
   On AP web is disabled/enabled simultaneously for HTTP/HTTPS services.

   To enable, go to wlc → ap-profile default-ap → services.

   Блок кода
   wlc(config-wlc-ap-profile)# services wlc(config-wlc-ap-profile-services)# snmp-server Enable SNMP service wlc(config-wlc-ap-profile-services)# ip http Configure web-configurator service https Configure web-configurator service ssh Configure SSH service telnet Configure telnet service

...

1. After the update it is necessary to edit the configuration according to the changes. The scheme of access point registration on the controller has been changed. Now not only port 8043 but also port 8044 is used. It is necessary to add port 8044 to object-group service sa:

   Блок кода
   object-group service sa port-range 8044 exit

   After the WLC is updated, the APs will be listed in the provisioning service and will be waiting for authorization. To view the list of unauthorized access points, use the command:

   Блок кода
   show wlc service-activator aps

   The following command is used to authorize all AP in the list:

   Блок кода
   join wlc ap

   The following command is used to authorize a specific AP:

   Блок кода
   join wlc ap <MAC_AP>

   It is possible to enable automatic authorization mode in the configuration:

   Блок кода
   wlc# configure wlc(config)# wlc wlc(config-wlc)# service-activator wlc(config-wlc-service-activator)# aps join auto wlc(config-wlc-service-activator)# do commit wlc(config-wlc-service-activator)# do confirm

2. The scheme of SoftGRE tunnels enabling has been changed:

   In 1.15.3 version:

   Client traffic comes from the AP to a gre-tunnel with a specified vlan tag, on the WLC side a separate subgre-tunnel is created for each vlan and included in the specified Bridges, when leaving the subgre the vlan tag is removed. With this implementation, a subgre-tunnel must be created for each vlan and included in one of the Bridges. WLC does not know vlans that are issued at the moment of radius authorization (if c-vlans with external radius server are used), and cannot raise tunnels for such clients.

   In 1.19.0 version:

   The logic of SoftGRE tunnels operation in wlc mode has been changed. Previously subgre was unconditionally included in Bridge by WLC configuration, in the new implementation subgre tunnels are absent. Vlan specified in SSID configuration is included in WLC without sub-tunnel termination in Bridge. The use of c-vlan in client traffic tunneling scheme is supported. For correct operation, the vlan must be created in the WLC settings and must be a member of the Bridge or interface.

3. To raise tunnels, the location parameter, which was previously set on Bridge and in ap-location for SSIDs, is no longer used. Instead, you must enable tunnel mode in ap-location. The vlan-id in ssid-profile must match the vlan-id in bridge users.

4. Wireless-controller is renamed to softgre-controller:

4. Ensure operation of the remote copy protocol between the WLC and the remote file copy server (intermediate firewalls). 
5. If necessary (for ftp, sftp, scp, http, https protocols), find out the username and password to write the required file.
