Speed Issues Related to Cisco IOS Firmware Upgrades
AWMS provides a very robust method of upgrading firmware on APs. To ensure that firmware is upgraded
correctly, AWMS adds a few additional steps which are not included in vendor-supplied management software.
AWMS Firmware Upgrade Process
1. AWMS reads the firmware version on the AP to ensure the firmware to which the AP is upgrading is greater
than the actual firmware version currently running on the AP.
2. AWMS configures the AP to initiate the firmware download from AWMS.
3. AWMS monitors itself and the AP during the file transfer.
4. After a reboot is detected, AWMS verifies the firmware was applied correctly and all AP configuration settings
match those in the AWMS database
5. AWMS pushes the configuration if necessary to restore the desired configuration. Some firmware upgrades
reconfigure settings.
Cisco IOS access points take longer than most access points because their firmware is larger.
